I bring a list of what I want to talk about, say I want to up this med

or this one isn't working or this body part is hurting more, would this

kind of PT work better for me? I wouldn't give him a day to day thing

but I do sum it all up. I have to write it down, too, otherwise I'll

forget half of it On the other hand, there's usually an awful lot

to talk about, too
