^^^^^^WARM GREETINGS FROM^^^^^^^^^^ Ivan Suzman 48/10 [log in to unmask] Portland, Maine land of lighthouses 32 deg. Ffreezing drizzle *********************************************************** Dear friends, I was seen by the surgeon on Tuesday and he recommended that I do NOT have hernia surgery right now. So I suppose I will live with it-it's too small to be of immediate concern and too large to get pinched off and strangulate. God, don't we talk about details! THe icy roads won't allow the long trip to Boston tonight and tomorrow so the 6-hour evaluation of my body's response to Sinemet and Eldepryl, including the off-periods, will be postponed til the roads are safer. Neurological Referral Center will re-schedule. Too much stressful travelling is not the best thing at the moment. Ivan
