I'd go with C, Tom. Phone trees make me nuts and the office might not respond to the pharmacy request.
I've been remarkably productive the last few days. Let's hope it lasts.
This morning one of my friends at the dog park pretty much talked me into not going for the knee surgery, at least yet. Jim walks many miles a day to and from the dog park, plus more walking while there. He does this mostly for his heart, and he is super thin, in a healthy way. He's somewhere in his late 60s and has had bone-on-bone in both knees since his 30s, possibly from a combination of being a boat captain and heredity. We've discussed it before, but he swears the horrific pain from when he first had knee issues was completely resolved decades ago through exercises to strengthen the muscles around the knee, particularly walking. And losing any excess weight. No, the cartilage never grows back, but the surrounding muscles take on the burden. Walking on the beach in particular is helpful because it is all leg muscle work in the deep sand.
