definitely gives me a pang that you still have peek's #!!
really great to hear that you've found a stellar specialist - a diamond in the rough. i'm fortunate to have connected with a supportive and collaborative specialist here. It can definitely take time and energy to find the right support.
if i knew the cure for tunnel vision, i would definitely relay!!

Pangs here too. My buddy that drove me up there back then is gone now too, he was standing right there when I called her on the way back.
It is fun though to twist the young doctors arms, the ones fresh out of med school.
Awww, so cute look at you with your pretty smock. I say "Stanford" it's like saying BOO!

When your orthopedic surgeon asks "what's MS", just walk out. Seriously.
You don't have to be an expert or anything, but I'm pretty sure the average Joe on the street knows say "arthritis" . Let alone a medical professional not having a CLUE about MS?

oh that's tough for sure. i don't tend to encounter too many amusing newbies myself. have just been gradually navigating relationships and having to be patient - all while the clock keeps ticking!
speaking of which, gotta go eat. empty tummy is not impressed with the first zinc of the day lol
