My wife just talked to our Dr this morning and Dr mentioned to her that she actually had another patient cut where I did, and she thought of me and hoped I was well.
I was floored. This is the first time someone I know in real life actually knows someone else that does/did it... I get looks from doctors like I have three heads or something when they find out, and with t's is always been "is not unheard of for people with your history", but it's never been "I have another patient who did that"...
I left a message with her office asking if she could call me when she had time because I had questions around what she had mentioned to my wife. I don't want any confidential info, but maybe just reassurance that I'm not as much of a freak as I feel...
Really hope she calls back. I know she's always really busy.
