that wont be hard for me, since he has been in my thoughts since i heard the news. lets just hope no news is good news.
Good thoughts make me happy! I kicked all the doctors to the curb and am starting with a fresh crew! Things can't be worse than they were! When I was in the hospital, the wife was making some notes. My surgeon was a Polish guy, and my wife was having trouble with his name! I said "No problem, it's right here on my wrist strap" I looked at the strap and not only wasn't the doctor's name on it, my name wasn't on it either! I called the nurse over and she almost ran out of her skin getting another wrist strap on me! She apologized for the rest of the day! Yep! I was almost one of those mistakes you read about! The strap was right when they first put it on me because they made me double check! I have no idea when it got swapped!

Holy Excrement!! Loko, you sure you don't have a multiple personality disorder? :^)
Been worried for you my friend...
I am glad you are kicking them to the curb. There are good doctors out there. It's a sad thing in this day and age that we have to hustle to find a good Doctor.
I took my neighbor to a local hospital a couple of weeks ago and they changed his wrist band 3 times in the 9 hours I was there because they couldn't decide who he was--even when I kept telling them. When I signed him in, they couldn't even find his records and he has been there several times in the last year. And, this is a very small hospital, how difficult can it be???
keep kicking until you get the right Dr.
It was some name El, but it sure wasn't mine! Maybe my whole wrist being black and blue had something to do with it!

unbelievable buddy.
Sometimes it takes being a lion, luckily that's what you are. Find yourself a decent doctor - you'll know it when you find one - just pay attention to your instinct.
