Hey Thornyrose, fellow Winnipegger:
- My GP was aware and on-board and willing to do all blood monitoring, etc.
- I am in contact with a new, non-hostile neuro for neuro follow-ups (hasn't happened yet)
- and I got in to Barrie for a follow-up ultrasound fairly easily ($250 + flight and accommodation)

I have also keep in touch with EuroMedic, and I have budgeted for a return flight and 12-month check-up next spring (~1500 flight and accommodation).

If a 2nd procedure is called for it will cost less than the first, but it will still be money I don't have after a couple of years of MS-reduced earnings. But it can be managed if necessary.

Not perfect, but that's what it is. For me, better than waiting multiple years for all our lobbying to bear fruit.
