I’m still scared. He told me quickly about a procedure and gave me some papers. He did ask if I had any questions but I can’t think as fast as he was going. I will see him again for a ct but might change the other procedure depending on how my mri goes. He did seem knowledgeable but he went so fast. He was kind and professional otherwise. Thank you for listening
