Counting your Blessings....


One of the things you could say about me is I'm a man with deep pockets.....unfortunately the periodontal variety, not the financial kind. So - when I made my most recent visit disclosed when asked if I were taking any medication that I had a PD dx and was on Azilect and Requip.

The Drs. reaction was scary - gave me a nervous smile, said aloud 'well, you just have to count your blessings!" - I could see him make a quick count of his own on his gloved hands before dashing out of the room.

Go figure...
