Dr Harwood - First Visit

I had an appointment this morning with my new Heart Doctor Guy. His name is Dr. Mark Harwood. He appears to be in his mid 30's so there is little danger of him retiring in my lifetime.

It was a good meeting and everything looked good with my device. He made a couple of adjustments to my meds. 

I had complained that my right eye was periodically becoming sensitive to light. Amiodorone is a drug I am taking to prevent V-Tach but a side effect is that it may cause problems with the eyes. So he told me to see my eye guy and check it out.

I'm still feeling kind of small. I'm sniffly and my head feels stuffed up. Of course, in these days, any time you feel crappy you have to wonder if you have come down with Covid. I can still taste and smell so I'm not too concerned. Neither was Dr. Harwood.

Mark had the day off so we went out for lunch. I almost canceled but rallied in the end. We went to Dave's Bar and Grill in the Valley. Neither of us had been there before which is why we chose it. Forty dollars later, we were laden with beer, burgers and what Mark said was "the best French Dip he had ever had".

My burger was good but not the best I've ever had.
