      I mentioned this in a previous comment, but the Nurse Practitioner I saw, Kristin, was absolutely phenomenal. She really listened, took what I said seriously, and discussed options for next steps we can take. She even suggested blood work just to see where things are at, and it returned some flags I need to pay attention to and make adjustments based upon, so I was really glad I did that.
