OP  Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts)
Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | I had an appt with my Surgeon today. This is the Dr that will call anytime of night or day. He called me sunday night at 10:10 to see when I was discharged from the Hospital last week. He gave me an appt to see him this morning. He told me, I just want to check that infection where we did needle biopsies. After checking my neck with both hands, his words were, "Jim you are amazing with the way you heal so fast." He even checked 3 more times to be sure. LOL I dazzled him with footwork. I do heal fast for some reason. But I'll take that and smile.
