I don't imagine it'll be terribly exciting--just little notes about things going on in my life right now, with the occasional link or photo thrown in for added interest.<br /><br />Today I had a really good experience seeing my new primary care provider. She was nice, empathetic and personable, and from what I can tell she seems to know her stuff. There was no lecturing, no shaming, and no pressure to try a particular therapy or medication. She was also respectful and knowledgeable about alternative and complementary therapies, which is an added bonus. Tomorrow I go back to get some lab work done, and while I'm a little nervous about what that's going to reveal, I'm feeling positive about working with my PCP to get/stay healthy.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=mererid&ditemid=15319" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://mererid.dreamwidth.org/15319.html haes good things public 4
