Point Made

I just got off the phone with the nurse from the MS clinic at UBC. Jane actually answered the phone. Shocking! In all the calls I've made, this is the first time I haven't had to leave a message.

"Thank-you for leaving the message for me at home. I understand that Dr Traboulsee wants me to try Rebif at 22mcg per dose."

"Yes"

"I don't feel comfortable with that because of the depression and liver issues. I'd prefer to try Copaxone first."

"Okay, but I won't be able to speak with Dr Traboulsee until next Thursday."

"No problem, I'll call you when I'm back in town."

Pardon my poor skills at catching the excitement of a phone conversation, but I view it as a small personal victory.
