Was I shanked in an alley? Or was it just a medical procedure? Ouch!!

from A Functional Approach with Dr. Jim Chialtas · host Jim Chialtas, DACM, L.Ac.

In this 137th episode I pop in quickly to share a recent medical experience I had with dermatology. In keeping with my interest in not only detailing what I consider cool and important medical information, riffing and philosophizing on the human experience, and offering some creative writing... I feel obligated to share my personal medical experiences. Because chances are that you have had or will have some similar experiences of your own! This time around I had a few experiences in dermatology. I had a suspicious mole removed and then a follow up procedure to get the rest. Happy to say it wasn't skin cancer, but it was close. Listen in for what happened, and how I feel about the situation. Long story short, I'm happy I submitted to such a procedure. But holy hell... It felt like I was shanked an a freaking alley!!
