| Thursday, March 28th My Appointment with Dr. Haynes�3 � weeks after surgery� My appointment was at 8:45 a.m. (CST) so we left our house at 6:00 a.m. (EST) that morning. It took us about 3 hours to get there. At first, I saw one of the Doctors in with Dr. Haynes and was thinking that I wouldn�t get to see Dr. Haynes. But he came in a few minutes later. I found out that the numbness at the top and front of my head and top of my ear is very normal. He is a little concerned about the dizziness I started experiencing two weeks ago. He said this is normal and will probably go away soon, but at the latest in 2 months. If I still have it after 2 months, he wants me to call him. He also prescribed some medicine for the vertigo (dizziness) called Robinul. I had it filled at the hospital (clinic) before I left. My insurance doesn�t cover this medicine, so I had to pay $27 for it. I took one immediately and could tell a difference. I took another one (only 2 per day) in the evening and I do think it helps me. Dr. Haynes said he normally has patients wait longer to get hooked up, but that everything looks good�no swelling and the incision has healed very well�and gave me the okay to see Susan in the afternoon and get hooked up. I was very excited about this! |
