Back At It ... Kind Of

Well, no surgery yet, but another doctor and another exam.

Feeling a lot better than I've felt for the last week, mostly because today's doctor really seemed to know what he was doing. I guess that's the way it's supposed to work when the general practitioner refers you to the specialist. In fact, today, the specialist seemed a bit bored with the whole situation.

Boredom from the specialist is a good thing - that means it's routine (I think).

When the general practitioner says things that sound a little strange, and he seems to have difficulty diagnosing a fairly common condition (inguinal hernia) that is corrected with fairly common surgery, and then you have to wait a week for insurance approval and the appointment with the specialist ... your mind can do strange things.

It's good that the specialist was bored today.

Anyway, I will be posting on an irregular basis for the next few weeks until the surgery is done and the black and blue marks go away. After that it will be back to the Monday thru Friday routine.

The new Dataquick real estate sales data for Southern California is out today, so I'm in the process of updating the charts and will have something new and (hopefully) interesting in the morning.

Thanks for all the comments and emails.
