Care and concern and a plan
Dr. Kernen scheduled this follow up to see how new medication prescribed2 months ago was working now. We discussed how much symptoms were improved. He recommended an earlier time for me to take the medicine and possibly to increase the dose if I wasn’t seeing more improvement after 3 weeks. It is a solid plan. I made notes and will follow it. He’ll see me for a next followup in six months unless I have concerns before then.
