I'm on a streak it seems...

I have a nutritionist/dietitian person to help me work on losing weight, and I have my regular PCP.

It happened these last couple weeks that I had an appointment with my nutritionist/dietitian person one Monday, my PCP the next, and when I asked my PCP for a referral to an ENT, I managed to get an appointment for this Monday. For some reason, this amuses me.

On another note, I told the receptionist when I was checking out of my PCP's office last week that late morning/early afternoon works best for me.....

Since when is anything before 9 AM late morning?

Now I should really scoot off to bed, if I'm gonna get a decent amount of sleep.

E.N.T. Love....

My ENT is pretty cool, for an being as old as he appears, which I'm glad for, cause some older Dr's get uppity about things being their way. Anyway.

While I knew there's be something to discover about why the heck I'm having these ear problems that brought me to see the ENT, I don't think I expected more than a "nothing seems swollen or out of place, try ____ and see if it helps"

I have a deviated septum. I laughed when I told mom that, and she stared at me for a minute and then said "there it is, I see it". The fun of having a mother who's an RN

I left with a sample nasal spray, and orders for an allergy test, a CAT scan, and a more in depth hearing check, I assume more in depth, since I had a hearing check while I was there.

I'm also a candidate for hearing aids...yay.

I'm not really worried or upset about any of this, just weary at the thought of having to deal with my insurance people in making sure all this is covered, cause while this is not necessarily an urgent medical problem, it's be really nice if my ears didn't spontaneously pop while sitting in my house reading a book, let alone possibly improving my allergy/sinus situation.

I think I'll deal with the insurance people in the morning, I'm tired and have dinner to cook.
