Amy - You are right - I have thought about keeping a notebook and this is something I have to quit procrastinating about and do. Being a procrastinator does not work well with being a caregiver. That, along with having a bad memory. Subsequently, my lifestyle has changed, and I have to change my personality as well, which is not a bad thing - I have been fighting the procrastination thing for a long time, I just seem to work better when I am under pressure. So now I am under pressure. So I guess I have no problem after all! (I think I better get some rest, like I said)

Actually, I am not intimidated about asking question, and have been - so much I guess that the RO told me I should get a book (a mystery book) to read. He did add that he doesn't mind and wants me to ask questions but I think he was insinuating that I was driving myself crazy by searching the net and coming up with new fears. But it would help if I had a more organized system so that maybe I wouldn't re-confuse myself with each conversation we have with one or the other doctors. The thing is, they answer my questions, but I don't have the background to necessarily understand the scope of it. Or maybe I think I understand at the time, but then later I don't. Thanks for the input and the suggestions. It's probably good to keep an ongoing log, even if it is not just to document conversations.
Good night. Sorry for rambling on....
