I've been with Dr. Rosenthal for more than four years. He has prescribed a blood thinner to help me with the possibility of heart attack and stroke. I had something different this time when I went for my appt. I had this woman from a peer health navigator study. The premise of the study is: How to help members with a mental illness get better physical care. For me, through my PCP, I've been able to get connected to specialists from Northwestern for years. I am part of this study for about 6 more months. I do receive a stipend for this. I received an EKG for the appointment today. It showed that not much has changed over the past year. This is good news. Dr. R suggested that I carry around a copy of the EKG, so if I am ever in another hospital system, I can show the staff a previous EKG and this right away gives them something to compare it to. Dr. R gave me the instructions for when I go for my cholesterol blood screenings in January. The instructions were straight forward. Dr. R asks me about my diet and finds out that I still play my guitar for a hobby. He also asks me about "the frequency of my exercises." We have talked about a wide variety of subjects. I wish him a "Happy Holidays" and he wishes me the same. I know fully that if I were to have a heart incident before my next check-up, I am welcome to call his office. There was some conversation among Dr. Rosenthal, my peer health navigator and myself. I am grateful that Dr. Rosenthal put up with having the peer health navigator in the appointment this time. The study is a IIT and Thresholds study.
