A Young Wife’s Tale

We met with David’s new rheumatologist yesterday. The old rheumatologist back in Dallas sent a copy of David’s file on June 16, but it still hadn’t made it’s way to South Jersey. The mail runs very slowly between Texas and New Jersey.

So, without any paper work, x-rays or labs to go on, the doctor examined David, asked a few questions and told him he looked great. He could see any signs of Psoriatic Arthritis. Of course, that could just be because of all the medication he’s taking.

He questioned David’s diagnosis for several reasons, and ordered new x-rays plus the standard blood work David has every eight weeks.
