Biting the bullet

[unixronin]

I just called my orthopedist's office and had them start working on the schedule for my bilateral knee replacement.  It looks like being late June.

I don't feel very happy about this.  But it's got to be done.  My knees are steadily deteriorating.

Just as a reminder, most of the progress will be on my medical/health filter.  Let me know if you're not on it and want to be.

Hey, Alaric, add me to the filter, if you would.

The hospital medical records department should be able to furnish you and/or your orthopod with complete notes about the surgery.

And you'll want to get your doc to give you a card of some sort stating you have BTKRs. It's handy if you have to travel by air or go through a metal detector at say, a court house.

Luck, eh?

Done. And thanks for the good wishes. :)
