Histrionic Progenitor Isn't it obvious?

Day 1.5

Here’s the word of the moment:

• Surgery last year officially failed.  The “repaired” disk is still/re-herniated.  Heather hasn’t done anything for a year.
• Symptoms don’t line up with location of the herniation.

Where we go from here:

• EMG scheduled for Tuesday at 2:00
• Pretty much no matter how that comes out, they’ll do an MRI of “a different area of the spine”

So, we’re up in the air as per what’s actually wrong and the doctor isn’t really talking.  However, I think I pretty seriously respect his not talking.  To give an analogy:

It’s like coding.  (Sad, eh?)  When you start programming, you tend to write single-purpose programs.  Then, they grow into multi-purpose linear programs.  After that, they grow to amazingly complex and impossible to maintain linear programs.  After which you finally give up and learn OOP.  The way I see it, most doctors try to solve the entire problem in one fell swoop, no matter how complex it may be.  This guy is taking an OO approach.  Heather has a foot drop on her left side.  We’re going to find out why and take care of it.  After that has been taken care of, well look into the next most important symptom and evaluate the inputs and outputs of that.  I think I approve.
