Granny's gone and done it again

[h2oratt]

I had the physical today which went well.

I like my doctor a lot. He’s great. LOL

In fact, when I went to the desk on the way out to book a couple appointments including the next physical, they asked me if I wanted to see his nurse practitioner (or maybe PA? IDK) or him and I said him. That’s how good he is LOL I didn’t say that last part but yeah. Plus I didn’t wanna see somebody I didn’t know. It takes me a while to get comfortable with new people LOL

I’m sure having people see somebody else on his team lightens the load for him so he’s not so busy which I do get and totally understand but I’d much rather see him LOL

Besides, they’ve never asked me that before and I’m not sure why.

I love my PT guy. Just went today. He works on what ever is tight. Neck today

That is SOP, Shrek. I see my orthopedic surgeon alternating with his NP/PA every three weeks. It's to cut down on the patient load of the doctor. You are within your rights to ask for you PCP. I insist on seeing my PCP when I go into the office. If I need a blood draw or am sick, I will go to the local clinic which is staffed by one of their PAs. No problem but if I want my back or neck adjusted I want to see my main doc or his senior partner.

Between you and me I hate braking in and training a new doctor, LOL.

That’s sounds nice. Do you still have pictures? I can’t imagine getting married at 16.

My sister probably does. She steals every family picture she can get.

Talking about being married at 16...I was 16, hubby 18 when we eloped on Friday the 13th. Within a month we moved from Florida to Michigan, 1500 miles from family. We had to depend on each other and friends we made. We have been married 60 years.

Wow! I was bragging on 30 years.

1. Extensive atherosclerotic disease most severely affecting the bilateraliliofemoral segments. On the right, there were multifocal short segmentocclusions of the SFA related to atherosclerotic disease with partial supply ofthe right popliteal artery from collaterals off the profunda. On the left, therewere multifocal areas of severe narrowing in the SFA with short segmentocclusion just before the popliteal artery, which is also partially suppliedfrom the right profunda.2. Patent 3 vessel runoff to the extent evaluated. The left dorsalis pedis isnot well opacified.-Note: Radiology results need to be interpreted within a comprehensive clinicalcontext.

My favorite version

I've never seen that version! Cool.

This one is the one I like. There are several videos where Angus is motor boating across the stage. I saw a recent one of them doing Thunderstruck and he's like in his 70s and hasn't slowed down very much. Strange seeing him doing the song with long gray hair.

Granny Granny Granny....what are we going to do with you? I know, Love you!

Seriously, like many of our generation we are now seeing the end results of eating well and what we want usually to excess. It will be interesting to see what the doctor suggests as a treatment approach.

In the meantime, you know what is causing your leg pain.

Wow! I was bragging on 30 years.

Just found out I have a new Great-grand daughter. She was born this morning 9#4oz Mom and baby doing well. She is #11 great-grand child.

Yeah I hate training new ones too LOL I started seeing a new dentist, neurologist, and eye doctor last year LOL they’re all amazing luckily but still.
