TUESDAY (9 Days to go) -- Doctor K, my endocrinologist, primary care physician, general contractor for major medical problems and all-around guardian angel, called early this morning. Apparenly, the system sent her a request for medical clearance to go ahead with surgery and being one of the best representatives of this country’s medical establishment, she wanted to actually see me before the operation. I agreed to see her tomorrow afternoon (Dr. K is one of few medical doctors I’ve ever looked forward to visiting).
I have to remember to ask her how I’m going to take the 24 different drugs I take every day after the operation. We need to discuss which are mandatory to take during the two weeks when I’m not able to swallow anything solid.
I still can't believe I've gone five days now without eating anything solid.
