thanks!

that's good advice. that's what happened when i moved from virginia to NY state, not exactly on purpose, but i moved, had about 3 good years, and by the time things got involved here, that history from virginia was so old, no one cared too much. i got all those all records and have passed on the things that help prove the things that really happened: like the torn rotator cuff or the cortisone injection into the SI, but left out all the vague "we don't know" guesses.

and when i went to philadelphia, i did take the letter my GP wrote, but instead of taking the "supporting documents" he gave me, i made sure i had a better more thorough and accurate file. and as you said, i was honest with him, but being able to discuss things was invaluable.

hadn't thought that i could do this with a new GP in town, but maybe i can, that would be good. i have a really nice file now. just a few more things to add to it.

thanks for the suggestion.
