Met New Doctor

My sister went with me to the “new doctor,” Dr. T, and sorry to say, we weren’t all that impressed, but agreed he’s better than Dr. D.  What we mean by “better” is that he’s just not as rude.  It’s too bad, but when you have Multiple Myeloma, you just don’t have that many options.  This [...]

Got The New Doctor!

The good news is that I am able to go to the new doctor, as he accepts my insurance and he’s accepting new patients.  I see him next Monday at 1:40pm.  His office is so much closer and in a nice area, so that will be just great.  I hope he turns out to be [...]

Feeling A Little Ridiculous, Buttttttt….

Son, niece, and sister took me to the ER yesterday.  I was just miserable and having a hard time breathing.  I feel like I’m 9 months pregnant and catch my breath. 
The ER was great, listened, and thorough.  Of course, I tried to just focus on the issue at hand: my swollen abdomen, the pain and [...]

Plugging Along

I have pressure, whether I eat or not, whether I doodoo or not.  When I eat anything, then the pressure definitely [...]

Medical & Doctor Update

I spoke to the two nurses today, Cindy & Marilyn. They were for Dr. D. whom I no longer like.  They were nice today though I felt they sided with Dr. D earlier and were exasperated.  Whatever.  Here’s the deal.
The results of the ultrasound I had last Thursday, just before my doctor appointment, where Dr. [...]

Rethinking My Doctor Again

You may recall I’d addressed Dr. D, my oncologist a while ago.  I didn’t like her.  We just don’t communicate very well.  Actually, she doesn’t communicate well with lots of patients, it’s a weakness of hers.  She is smart.  She is good as far as not wanting to overtreat.  I do think she truly cares [...]

It Really Has Been A While, Hasn’t It?

I’ve been waiting to have some kind of definitive answer as to what is going on with me before writing here.  Then, I’ve either been busy or too tired to blog.  But here I am, willing to give some sort of update. 
My sis and neice from Colorado have moved back here permanently.  So now I [...]
