What's happening @ShazS ?
My best advice is always take a thermos mug and a note pad in which you will write everybody's name and when you talk to tyem. All of them. Doctors, nurses, physios, radiologist, pain specialists...all of them. It is a powerful tool.
I look back on the notes I've taken in the last year when I want to check who I spoke to, when and what they said. At the time I thought the details would be seared into my memory, but no. Keep notes, make it your job when you can do little else.
I might add I can be a raging pain in the arse and my methods don't work for everyone :) Marg xxx
