Ed, you and @ray666 gave me a chuckle this morning, and got me thinking of the standard request to bring ALL medicine bottles, including OTC, in with you to each appointment. I think “Really? You want me to destroy my organized system at home by scooping them all up and putting them in a knapsack?? They come in 90-120 day supplies, and some, like my Gabapentin and One-A-Day Multivitamin are huge and heavy!! I can barely walk without assistance and you want me to carry a 5 lb sack along with my purse and notepad & paperwork?” All joking aside, I guess I understand how important it is to have the correct & current information, and some folks don’t keep a current list available. I am thankful that not one has ever balked at me just having my memory, plus I always keep a printed list in my wallet. Like you said Ed, if they have the prior paperwork, they really only want the changes. Some questions really make me think though; like Ray had in a discussion once, how much of our family history do we really know?
