I did have my exam medical exam today and all is good with the exception with the Oral surgeon. My doc weighed me as well as did a few other test and he could see that my teeth or moreso my upper clef of my gums do need to attended too. The oral surgeon could not fit me in till next week but it has had an impact on my right eye as well where you get that TMJ effect. So from what he surmised was that after I have seen both the dentist and the oral surgeon that all shall come together. My good friend Pat whom lives south of here is in town as of this afternoon and his sister lives here so we shall be getting together tomorrow.
As most all know I have this ADD which has been an adaptation with medicine as I am on a medication which is called concerta and it's been working well but I he or we decided to take down the amount and rather than taking one pill in the morning I shall take one in the morning and then one before supper. I have no problems with this diagnosis as when it really comes down to it I just need a little more time to read things and absorb them.
Within times where there are so many clinics again I must say that I am glad that I have a physician that has his own practice and it's an hour or two meeting rather than that of a 10 minute walk in and walk out as what is done within most clinics here.
Everyone has a little bit of something but if I may when I did get the diagnosis of ADD and it was explained out to me. I understand and ironic as it is once you do have a proper diagnosis you do work at your best as for years I was given pills at times in which there was no diagnosis. As I understand it, neurologically my brain works faster than the average. With that said, this medication does a catch up if you will and the only downside is that you have to ensure that you eat appropriately as for some doctors will prescirbe the medication as a means to loose wieght and many find it hard to sleep with. Yet within how my own brain works it's actually more of a relaxing experience as the mind and the brain are working at the same timing if you will.
The gums it does effect my speach but this too shall be addressed next week. So all in all and aside of age. I have been running every day, I have a secondary office and all things have come together.
I had a blood test which came back which indicated that all other areas are fine or normal. So again I got a head to toe done but it's all working out well and that is basically my day.
excellent Jack!
ReplyDeleteIt's time for my annual checkup in a few short weeks from now. Actually I go next week to get the results of my blood work done to check for allergies. The doctor has set aside thirty minutes for that review. Then in early Sept. she has set aside an hour for my yearly exam. She's what I refer to as a country doctor. She wears her hair in long blonde braids and wears a denim skirt most every time I see her. She lives in an enormous two story home in the country three miles west of town....anyway, glad things went pretty well for you today.
ReplyDeleteYes it all went well Pam.
ReplyDeleteOf what I found is that there are good doctors which do take the time and then there are those practing doctors Vicki I that the milestone within
ReplyDeletemedical especially family doctors as we call them are those which do take that time. It sounds to me that she is that of the nature of those whom
do take the time - rather as mentioned - the clinics which do that get them in and get them out. There are still some of them out there in
a time where there is ever moreso a need for good doctors as nowadays more so than ever there is a need with the baby boomer rise for
that manner of which the patients do count and are not merely numbers.
With God's grace, may you stay healthy, Jack. tight hugs.
ReplyDeleteI shall and I am...but most important is within the way.
ReplyDeleteI had some tests awhile back and eventually everything came back A-Okay.
ReplyDeleteHope your oral dentist will get everything done that is needed to be done so you are pain free and can go back to living a normal life.
Good luck, Jack.
For the most part it does not effect my day Erika, it's just tends to come up near the end of the day as
ReplyDeleteI might just indulge in talking too much. :)
Oh well, I guess that is better then.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Jack.
:)
I wish you all the good of this earth, friend
ReplyDeleteSi, Nico I do understand that as you are one person of which I do
ReplyDeletefind that there is a very balance nature and wisdom does apply.
All is within a progressive nature of that which is good.
It's as simple as that mi amigo.
