I like her, she is young and seems to be up on the latest about Scleroderma. She did not take me off mino, she is calling my primary to suggest a new BP med, that will also help with my Raynauds. another thing I liked, as I told her of the weird looks that I get when I say what I have...If I have to go into a hospital, better I go there, if I have to go here, to have them call her...she thinks that my hands look really good, to keep on exercising them...I think I will stay with her...I am okay with it! She mentioned Cellcept but not that I should take it, because I "seem" to be on the downhill side of things. ( if I were getting worse, Cellcept suppresses the immune system more than mino and that would be the way to go, in need of a stronger suppressant. She left it completely up to me whether I want to reduce mino or stay where I am for now...gonna see her in 4 months. She spent one hour with me!! (in my opinion, is as it should be with a new Doc) Oh and my drive in was great, as a niece took me that went to school in the area and buzzed around there like She lived there! So it was a good day!!

Glad the visit went well Nancy and you like the new doc. I appreciate the review. If I do go back to BI thanks to you and Grammie I have an idea what to expect. I'm still up in the air about it so far. I may just stay with my PCP here, more convenient at any rate. That Boston trip takes all day for us and I am not sure at this point I need a Rheumy.
Nice you had a local guide too.
