Doctor Appointment

Another 5 minutes, another $50. That's how long I spent talking to the doctor, and the amount of my copay. Hmmmm.... Where do I get a job making $10 PER MINUTE?!

However, he was very impressed with all the weight I've lost (35 lbs from what he weighed me at about 7 months ago), and my liver enzyme levels are within eyeshot of normal. He thinks that if I continue to lose a little weight, things will settle in the normal range, so I won't need to return to his office unless things take a turn for the worse. So, this whole exercise has been well worth the trouble.

Check-in with McConnell tomorrow morning...
