Third doctor of the day

The previous 2 were less than encouraging, so I have low expectations. This is my podiatrist, treating me for foot pain that has prevented me from hiking for many months now. I have seen some improvement, but still discouraged. His name is Frederick Kruger, which is probably a sign.

After meeting with my cardiologist this morning, I am now convinced that I have chest pain and problems that I never felt before. This appears to be psychosomatic. They asked if I have chest pain that increases with exercise, and I don’t think I do. I did cardio this morning with the trainer and felt fine, so I probably won’t die until tomorrow. But I am convinced my foot is fucked and I have to live with pain forever.
