Tuesday, Jan 26, 2021 – Doctor’s Appointment

Hi Sweetie,
Had a late morning drive down to Coral Springs for my doctor’s appointment at 11:45, only to sit around for more than an hour before they called me in. I don’t know why they were so late, all they said was “scheduling problems,” but it would have been nice if someone had come out and told me there was a delay. The receptionist said they were at lunch, but the nurse said they always work through lunch, so I don’t know. Anyway, the surgeon explained everything they wanted to do to me, and I left with a whole list of more appointments I have to do before the surgery in a few weeks. They need a pre-op exam with my GP, another pre-op exam with the surgeon a week in advance, and a Covid text. I had to change my appointment for my shoulder because it conflicted with one of those. Once I got back home (thankfully, it was an uneventful drive on the turnpike thanks to the Sunpass), I spent a bunch of time organizing all these appointments. They’re saying I’ll need two weeks essentially off my feet after the surgery, then physical therapy for 2-4 months before I MIGHT be able to resume my usual activity. Flash will be NUTS by the time I get back on him if it takes that long! I’m not thrilled at the delayed departure, starting to look like late March or April before I’ll be able to get out of Florida. Fortunately, the last couple of appointments can be done virtually, so that should help. Don’t have any idea what will happen after I see the shoulder doctor, though, but I’m determined to get this all done asap. I’ve had these aches too long, I need to clear the way for normal aging aches, which haven’t really started yet! Finally got that all done on the computer, and settled down for a quiet evening. Now I’m off, as usual! Good night, babe! Love you!
