Too true. And from this side, it's a matter of balancing the teaching with all the other tasks. Not to mention remembering if I already went over ... with you. Some folks don't know what questions to ask & some are offended if I give them basic information. Can't tell by looking who's remembering & who's too stunned to take anything in. Keep getting better. Take something to do with your hands in the waiting room. I knit or crochet or take the latest book. I'm guessing you're already keeping a note book of what happened when, medically? Write down questions as you think of them & pull out the list at the appointments. In general, nurses are more geared to teaching than the physicians. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Bush" <genebush@netsurfusa.net>

Hello Judy
It is the usual.... large collection of a specialty... this case
urologists... they have a form and a handout for every step... just tick the
boxes. No one really talks to you any more.. they don't have the time, I
suppose. What information I get is from asking the nurses as they work with
me. But... you have to know what questions to ask and when to ask them.
Everything is a process....

Working in health care can make for nonchalance about someone else's pain. I

hope he was trying to reassure you that your usual activites aren't harmful
now.
I work in a post surgery unit & I see a lot of folks who are afraid to move
at all after any procedure.
