howeirdI thought it would take an hour to get there, the office is quite a ways past the Strip and then north several main streets. 11:30 appointment, I left home at 10, arrived at 10:30. Waited 15 minutes in the parking lot but then went inside to use the restroom.
Handed in the paperwork, and waited till noon to be called. 12:45 still sitting in the exam room, nobody around outside.
Nurse came in at about 1:30. Doctor was not far behind. They traded off asking me questions I had already answered on the form. Doc finally got into urology questions. He found my description of the two previous urologists disconcerting, and his plan is to re-do the camera-in-the-bladder exam which was botched by the first urologist, and then do another exam which neither of them had done but should have. And the next step depends on the results of the first two.
Found a more direct route home, got here at 3:10 pm.
Lunch was a Mom's meal beef patty & carrots. Berries for dessert. My blood work showed low HDL, so some of the time waiting for the doctor was spent researching that, and adding avocados, edamame and lima beans to my next groc order. Also ordered Samsung earbuds from BestBuy and tried to find a food cart (the seat/tray on the walker is small and low). But now that I can walk again, I may not really need that.
Neighbor brought the mail, and gave me back the key because if I can drive I can get the mail (my idea). In the mail was a programmable scanner, and the latest EKG device. It says I have "Sinus rhythm with wide QRS" which is something similar to atrial fibrillation but more benign, and common among those of us with CHF. I was diagnosed with this in my teens, but then they called it sinus arrhythmia. It is sometimes mistaken for a heart murmur.
The scanner was able to pull in a few local stations, I plugged in the local fire and rescue dispatch frequencies, and will play with it tonight. Broadcastify.com, which I have been using, had not been able to maintain their scanner for those lately.
Dinner started with sheep milk cheese and crackers, then shifted to the last of the cocktail shrimp. Berries for dessert.
Jade was crying loudly, a fresh bowl of canned food calmed her down, but it wont last. Yup there she goes again.
Graham Norton again had a group of guests I have no interest in.
90 Day had two couples get back together who should have failed. And one guy who was being catfished was provided with an actress who pretended to be his One True Love. Twitter followers posted proof she is a California gal, model and actress. People who speak Spanish testified that her accent is not Peruvian. And her English is way too good. But he hasn't seen through her, or else he's an actor too.
Tomorrow:
Maybe drive to the PO and drop off the CO2 cartridges for refill
Start making lime soda again. I have limes
Finish the last 2 Mom's Meals
Strawberries for dessert, half a pound at a time
Watch more CNN and MSNBC.
