Mar 2017

just had rotator cuff surgery, and took 3 tries to find the right surgeon. actually had one throw me out of his office.

next guy- great. young dude who puts old ladies beat up shoulders back together, which the big jock docs apparently dont like to do.
my rheumie sent me, and he is great. he always backs me up in this stuff, and has no problem w the fact that i think surgeons are all a little nuts.

cute young dude wearing pink socks. very nice, very forthcoming w explanations. actually gave me his cell number after the surgery. super smart pain plan, too.

so glad i'm not in a small town any more. all the best is here in chi.
