It’s a rare week when I don’t have any doctor’s appointments. Guess this is a burden that comes with age, but hey, modern medicine has supported me to get to where I am.
Monday, today, at 1100, I have an appointment with the spinal cord stimulator people in Fort Worth. It is a perfunctory appointment, as I have been having zero problems with the device, and it’s working to the extent that I’m now driving without complications.
Thursday, I have an appointment at 1000 with my podiatrist to look at my feet (diabetic) and trim my nails. These appointments are every three months and are totally covered by Medicare to ensure diabetics’ feet are taken care of.
The same day, we have a video conference with a caretaker person at the VA to check how we’re doing, now that my wife is an “official” caretaker for the VA and me. I don’t see any challenges with this interface, as it’s probably just to fill out paperwork required by the VA. Also on this day, one of our domestics is scheduled to work in the house on tasks for my wife.
And finally, Friday is when I’m scheduled to place my monthly order for dialysis supplies, again, no big deal.
See you tomorrow. Hank
