Geoff and I left yesterday around 8 in the morning. Mr GPS took us down through Mallorytown and it was a gorgeous scenery. Crossing the border was easy and we arrived in Utica around 11:30. Although it was a bit of a wait to my appointment, we made good with our time.
Sarah, Dr' Fitzer's assistant, took my blood pressure and we discussed the complications I experienced last weekend. She agreed that it was all due to dehydration and was happy that I have been drinking alot more since. She then brought up my blood work, and my Iron is low and Uric Acid is very high.
I discussed the Insomnia I've been experiencing and the difficulty I'm having with the CPAP since surgery. She agreed that I needed more time and after discussing with Dr Fitzer, they recommended that I return to work on December 14th. I am healing, however it is a very slow process. They don't recommend pushing around in an office chair at this point, or the twisting and pulling motions that I would be doing at my desk.
Geoff and I were burnt out last night when we got back home. We watched a bit of TV then hit the sack.
Next appointment is Friday, February 26th, 2010. Wow 2010....sounds weird.
Cheers!
