My apologies. I failed to post the outcome of last Friday’s appointment and day.
As it turned out, the Lyft ride I scheduled so as to get to my appointment on time and avoid parade traffic, came only five minutes later than scheduled. I got in town about half hour before time. I checked in and was called back within five minutes.
The resident Dr. was nice and allowed me to show the affected areas that wouldn’t require that I unbandage. Praise Jah!! The clearly visible inflammation caused him to prescribe a body wash, topical antibiotic and oral antibiotic regimen. He also suggested that I try Humira instead of the Cosyntyx.
The supervising physician agreed with the assessment and treatment plan. The appointment went smoothly and I then headed to another floor to have the required lab work done.
I went back into the waiting area since I had a good amount of time before my sister Lydia was due to pick me up. I hadn’t been seated for long before she texted that she was headed to get me.š„°š„°š„°š„°š„°
Traffic wasn’t bad and I was truly appreciative of her self sacrificing love. I’m presently waiting for everything to be processed so that I can begin the medication. I’m thankful for how things turned out.
