August 4th with Dr. Hottie and Friends...


Ok, here I am at the Doctor's office on August 4th. This is my regular post-op check up after surgery.....We had a guest Doctor come to hang out at the office today. That fine young MD-in-Training is Dr. Wilkerson, he is usually with Dr. Murthi, the other half of the Kernan Hospital World Renown Shoulder Team!! He is hanging with Dr. Stein while Dr. Murthi is taking some vacation time......Isn't my Doctor Hottie a nice guy....mentoring the young staff.....and always looking so darn jovial doing it.
Dr. Hottie is checking out the newest x-rays looking for bone growth and concentrating very hard on his assessment.....isn't he cute when he thinks?

You can see my x-ray on the screen but it is no different than the
one a few weeks ago, so I didn't do what I like to call "the traditional screen shot"...you'll have to wait until September when I go back again.
Nothing new to report this time. Filed an appeal with my insurance for the Bone Stimulator that he wants me to use and they are not satisfied that I have been without growth long enough.....so we will see if they come through in time to get some growth going before my next appointment.
My back and neck are tight and killing me....I got a refill on my muscle relaxer so I am hoping that I will feel a bit of relief tonight...I think I'm gonna have to head back to Dr. B to have him assess my neck/back.....I know the x-rays were negative but it hurts to get up and down and it is really killing me to use that little rental car....the seat is killing me. I called to complain to Enterprise Rent-a-Car. They were very responsive.....NOT.....didn't bother to call me back.
Perhaps this is enough whining for now....I love you all, pray for me to have patience and to persevere. XOXOXOXOXOXOX - AL
