#TremontClinic I made it through the doctor visit yesterday without too much hassle. There was the inevitable clipboard filled with forms to fill out.
Computers were supposed to save trees but as far as I can tell they are used to devise and print forms full of ridiculous questions about things nobody cares about and probably never read once they key the answers back into the computer.
I have to go back today for lab work. Im always stumped as to why they dont do the labs before the doctor appointment so we might have something to talk about?
