Ugh YES! The late appointments, frustration in advocating for yourself, and some doctors just being buttheads makes it all so much more exhausting π£
I'm so glad to hear that aside from the Dr running late, the appointment went well otherwise AND that the news was positive!!
I think once one gets hip to avocado it can easily become a craving, especially if they are affordable! Locally grown are the best, yum π
A lot of foods that are popular elsewhere just haven't sparked any interest in the places I've stayed in the Mid East (First in Amman, Jordan, and now in Damascus, Syria). I think a lot of it has to do with folks struggling to make ends meet; they aren't willing to spend a wild price on something they have no idea about... and the one time I've seen avocados here the price was STEEP! I think this stops folks from growing/ importing these things much here.
Sending hugs and good health vibes your way π€π
