I hurt my wrist while trying to lift 1# dumbells

so I could start my weighlifting that Dr. B

guidelines recommend!!! Go ahead and laugh:)

I had problems with this wrist from holding my

baby son his first years.

It has been nearly two weeks of wearing my wrist

guard and it is getting worse. So I will see the

Orthopaedic dr tomorrow.

I have NO IDEA how to fill out forms for regular

doctors now. Do I tell him I'm on 8 different

medications with two of them being anti-biotics

Do I write on the forms or tell him verbally

that I have chronic Lyme and babs when I have

been clinically dx?

Please help, my appointment is tomorrow

afternoon.

Very sorry to hear this!!!

Just try to protect your LLMD. You need to tell him what you're taking.
