I changed DRs!

It appears I made a good choice. He is very through and talked about this the other guy never did. He said Yes. the implant was justified,
He feels we can get to 80% of what I was! I will take it.
in 2 weeks we willcombine tweaking and the treadmill.
He gave me a good tip too. "Take lots of breaths before doing stairs. The drum major doean't know wht you are about to do, this will trigger him!" It works!
He is a UCLA DR. He sure relieved anxiety

My now former DR wanted to see me in 4 weeks. I thought thats a long time to walk around with anxiety.
I looked at the appointment card, maybe a mistake, but it says Oct. 17 !!!! Ye gads.
His main gal is awful, always was. If i call to check on an appointment date, she would be antagonostic and say things like "Hey you ain't our only patient!" As though I expected her to remember the date and time!

I was a tackle store owner. We were nice to every customer that came in! It is a must. I was resposible for my employees, as I should have been.

Good for you both!

So glad you found Doctors who will listen to you and explain things and work with you. That is so important, especially with our devices.

Hope you both feel better.

I finished 29th in London in 2 hours 20 minutes 30 seconds which is my fastest with or without a device so clearly it didn’t slow me down ! I had no problems apart from some slight chaffing on my scar - more Vaseline next time.
