One thing I learned when Fulltiming in an RV, not really knowing where I would next see a Doc, is to keep (and carry) copies of all my lab work, biopsies and now scans (loaded into computer and on disk). Only thing I don't have is a specification of exactly what XRT treatment I had -- I need to go back and get that one!

I put all my lab work on two sheets, starting about 17 years ago, so I can hand a copy to any Doc and he/she has it all!
