physical exam
I had a physical exam this afternoon, which included a few things the doctor couldn't do remotely, like a manual breast exam and a check of the skin on my back for any growths or discoloration (she found no problem with either). The follow-up in 3 months will be telemedicine, because there's no reason for it not to be.
The weather was unexpectedly mild, so I had lunch in Davis Square before I saw the doctor, at one of Mr. Crepe's little outdoor tables. After the physical, I took the bus up Highland Avenue for cheesecake at 7Ate9, and then another bus the bus to Lechmere, in part to see what the new/rebuilt green line station is like. It is impressive, but there should be clearer signs explaining where to get your fare validated. Fare validation uses the fare sale machines, which then print a little receipt. The receipt was familiar from doing much the same thing on some Seattle and New York City bus lines. I had expected separate machines on the train platform (as at the Seattle and New York bus stops). However, the elevators at the new station work well, and I had no trouble finding a T employee to ask for help. This is a snazzy new station, replacing an odd and run-down old one.
ETA, for my reference: Carmen said that if I was exposed to someone with an active case of covid, she might be able to get me another dose of the Evusheld in less than six months. No details, she said it was something she'd heard on the "Ask a Virologist" podcast.
