Session 17 - winding down

Went in for all the nice things today: Magnet machine, Electromagnet on the knee, exercise, currents, vibrating thingamajig, laser thingamajig. The doctor was away today so the clinic was really empty. There was a relaxed feel to the entire session, and seeing as it is most likely my last one, it was a nice way to wind down my experience at Dr. Jatin Chaudhry's clinic.

My MRI is scheduled for 10 am tomorrow morning. I'm anxious more than anything else. Lack of healing will necessitate surgery in a few months. So there is quite a lot at stake. The MRI technician asked me if I had any previous MRI (I do) and to bring it along so that he could compare the old one with the new one (I said sure).

But then at the clinic later this evening, Manoj told me: Don't tell them you had an MRI, don't show them anything, don't tell them anything about your condition. Let them come up with their MRI report without any help. I said, Uhmm...I already told the technician I do have an MRI and will bring it along. Manoj shook his head. Tell him you were confused, that it was an x-ray, that you know nothing about nothing.

Okay. Sure thing.

So, dear reader, if you've kept up this long, or perchance happened on this entry non-sequentially, then make sure you check out tomorrow's news--I am pretty sure I will have the report and Dr. Chaudhry's prognosis in hand to share with you.

Keeping 'em fingers crossed...
