My sincere apologies if you are offended. I realize that of course.
Those type of ‘doctors’ offered one friend open heart surgery, another had his ankle cartilage rebuilt with his knee cartilage-just so they can be the first to do it. We received multiple letters that our children were in safe hands (under their care) after they lost a child (lord knows why). Those three events locked-in my distrust.
I paid extreme close attention during the root canal prep-multiple times I was handed off to a doctor that had never completed a particular procedure-with the others coming, about every 40 minutes, checking on their junior partner. “That looks good.” You can park a cockroach between my gold cap and the next tooth.
The one fairly competent doctor, clamped my jaw so hard I could feel my heart beat pounding everywhere. It felt like shaking in my head. The swelling didn’t go down for weeks.
I firmly believe that if you were very angry with me, that you would do a better job!
Anyways I love your thread and your port work is very encouraging-thanks very much.
All of your questions are shared by other enthusiasts and I greatly appreciate your efforts-thank you.
