I do like the new guy, however, so I'm going to ride it out for a while with him. I almost felt like we 'connected' and he did have a great sense of humor. At least he didn't poo poo each thing I asked him about. He was willing to listen to my pages of questions and let me to try something new if I felt it might help me. My current doc didn't want to try anything new. Almost like he didn't even hear me.....ughh!<br><br>I posted to your other entry...the sh** or get off the pot title, but I don't see the comment.

Unfortunately he is retiring this summer and I have been thrown to the wolves so to speak. I tried to talk my neuro out of retirement by telling him he was too young, he had a lot of good years left, I just couldn't live without him, etc., but he was not buying any of it. I am fortunate in that I have found a successor that seems to fit the bill outside of cloning. I am looking forward to a long and lasting relationship with him. First question I asked "Are you planning retirement in the next 20 or 30 years?" I also see an MS specialist/researcher in another city. He assists in my care and teratment and I needed to find a doctor that was willing to work hand in hand with him.<br><br>Best of luck to you and everyone with MS. We are all on the same ship together and I am determined it is not going to sink.<br><br>SuzanneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1393180381474894886.post-27396415533404437522006-04-15T13:54:00.000-07:002006-04-15T13:54:00.000-07:00Thanks for the comment, SbBridges and I'm glad...Thanks for the comment, SbBridges and I'm glad you enjoyed the post...navigating our current healthcare system is hard enough without the added stress of having a "special" disease. I'm glad you have found an adequate replacement neurologist...they are not always easy to find! Best of luck to you as in your own travels with MS.<br><br>Linda D. in SeattleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
