Retraction, Mea Culpa, Apologia

I had several interactions today with medical professionals, and without exception, they couldn't have been nicer.  My telephone appeal was addressed in a timely and satisfactory manner, and pleasantly and cheerfully in addition.  The PAT staff were courteous and friendly for my return visit.  I had a routine visit at the nephrologist's  and, though he is not involved in my present treatment, he was very concerned and made several telepnone calls to OrthoNy and the surgeon himself so he could share his observations with them.  He also said that Veena, my substitute clearance physician, is a wonderful doctor, a sweetheart who does all she can to help her patients.  She is the doctor who said she would come to my house if I needed her to.  Dr. G. even shook hands with me and wished me well.  Notwithstanding, the tests were all clear; the only concern is that I'm presently on antibiotics, so that could be an issue later.  However, the surgeon assured the nephrologist that he would keep me on antbiotics until all is clear.  Geez, there's no way out.
