[Magdalen] DX: Humiliation by Fainting

[Ginga Wilder]

So, I have an appt to see my internist who thoroughly knows and understands
my complex medical stuff - next Wednesday.  He will be back in his office
then, following a mission trip to Dominican Republic.  The surgeon agreed
that I needed to get myself checked out prior to surgery and thought, since
I am feeling good and nothing is acting out after the faint, it's okay to
wait.  I am going to reduce the new diabetes medication (Invokana) by
taking it every other day until I see my doc.

All is well; all shall be welle.
