there's nothing wrong with you

So monday comes along and I have to see the Neuro.

While I wait I see Dr Thinnesh. He greets me and asks whether I am still leaking. I say nope and the medicine did it's trick. He says good, still on the brew. I said no, it's finished. I ask whether I'll get chemo or radiotherapy because the ENT asked. He said that depends on the onkologist. They vist once a month .... then the nurses calls me in. I make my excuse and see the neuro.

It was the other doctor (I alsway forget to look at his name tag). He asks whether I was leaking. I said no. He was happy. I ask about the chemo or radio. He says I will need to see the onkologist. He says he will make an appointment today. I say the ENT asked and I will see him tomorrow. He said it's up to the onkologist. He'll give me the details tomorrow plus the reference letter. I say I'll visit tomorrow before the ENT.

I ask about the medic alert bracelet. My concern was that as my right nostril was blocked and worst exposes my brain whether I can get this thing and wear it to prevent emergency staff from poking a feeding tube or de-airing tube in the right nostril. You never know, this can happen if I have an accident. He said he'll ask. He said you can put a note in your wallet. I said the emergency staff may not go through that.
