Lahey Clinic

For the most part, I liked the Lahey clinic. There are some infrastructural things that they could work on: the $8 parking fees in the suburbs and the T.V. charge, plus the rooms are a little cramped, but in the end, the doctors knew what they were doing.

As an AA patient, you are kind of a little star for the residents. When they started up the ATG on Tuesday, I had about 7 or 8 people in my room with clipboards; then the "team" thinned out with every treatment until I became a virtual non-event by Friday.

For me, the toughest part was when they inserted that PICC-line. Youch! And those damned 4:00 AM vitals checks, when the steroids have finally worn off enough to where you can get some sleep.
