Tec check

Hi, I am going in for my first tec check later this week. Since I got my pm very fast I know next to nothing about it. So I want to get any and all info I can. What info should I ask for? I am not a ignorance is bliss kind of gal. I once was told from a G.I. Doc that i would not understand what he was going to do. Ha, I told him that I may be getting old, just 70, but not stupid. He left the room and another doc came in. I don't want to face that with a tec.
So any advise you can give me would be appreciated.
This a great site.
Mandi

Hi Mandi,
If you go to the Search function (top right hand side of page) and type in "questions to ask" you will get a lot of information from similar questions asked in the past. Far more information than anyone of us could give you individually. Best of luck. John

You did not want an egotistical stuffed shirt w/ an ego as big as a Packard V12 engine doing anything on you.

How did the other Doc do? Any better?

Mandi: the main question you ask is not a question, but a polite demand for a copy of your down load report.

Stick your hand out & say "Please let me have a copy of the report." Leave your hand out like it is part of a statue & look them right in the eye. It yours by LAW & they cannot deny it from you.

If they hesitate & mumble something under the breath, yopu answer that "...I have several friends who have had PM's for over ten years each & they can walk me through any questions I have about what is in it. Do not worry about me getting confused by ANY of the data."

When they hand it to you, look at it knowingly, fold it back up & stick it in your purse. Tell them thank you & go on to any other questions that may have piqued your interest from the SEARCH function.

Look at it this way - at this point, you know about as much about PM's as you do about building an Atomic Bomb. We all started that way & learned the same way you will - asking questions - principally in here.
