Thank you so very much for sharing your insight with me. Telehealth sounds like the answer for me.

I've been having all my follow up appts (plus some other doctor's appts too that don't require me to be there - like for lab work or something) via telehealth ever since the pandemic started. I'm totally fine with it. For some types of appts, they really don't need to see you in person - plus it saves commuting time.

mine have been on Zoom or other Zoom-like programs. You could do it on the phone, too - although I like seeing the person on my screen.

Are you feeling any better?

The withdrawal from our lifelong addiction to excess food is HORRIBLE... but after eight weeks the insides mostly heal up and you start losing fat rapidly and wow !

Gaining mobility.... being able to exercise more walk more.... bend down .... have much more endurance and patience and happiness. At least that was my experience. (((()))) hugs

It's like face time, zoom, or Skype. Your on your computer, tablet, or if you have no other option your phone (which the screen size makes it harder to see the other person). I use it for all my appointments so I don't have to drive 2hrs there and 2hrs back. You video chat and it's private, find a quiet place in your home, and I love the convenience. Not much different then seeing them in person. Just have a list of questions or concerns you have and be prepared to take notes.
