appt to see Dr. Byrne
« on: September 19, 2012, 01:02:46 pm »
I have an appointment to see Dr. Patrick Byrne in Baltimore Monday to see if I am a candidate for T3.  I am excited.  Trying not to get my hopes up, but I am.  Susan

I will definitely tell him that Kay and Nancy sent me!  We plan to go to an Orioles game.  I would rather see the Ravens, but the tickets were too expensive.   Any other tourist recommendations?

Susan: I hope you're NOT a candidate b/c it would mean your face has too much movement. & thank you for remembering me when you see him.
Please tell him people tell me my face looks better and better.
Best of luck to you, always good thoughts, Nancy

Nancy,

So you can have too much movement for T3?  I am HB3. (symetry at rest, lots of synkenesis, but very little "normal" movement)
