I have one doc who values my input and knowledge and another who does not.

When Julius suffered from hip pain, the description of the pain told me it came from his back. At first, doc disagreed because he didn't do backs and the hip mri said the same thing. Only then did he transfer him to the back specialist - saying he suspected his back all along?

Sometimes they want to be on the safe side and rule you the obvious. This is good medicine. Sometimes they just want to do it their way.

It sounds like he just wants to cover his bases. But you know him best. Either way, neither a worsening neck or a stroke, isn't exactly good news. With everything else, you really didn't need this. I am sorry.

My thoughts are always with you, Dale
