So I go in on Friday, afternoon no less, and get no answers really, because she will then look at the scans. And since it will be Friday, afternoon no less, it most likely will be too late to have anything done this week.
And I'm supposed to leave for a week on Sunday. A fun-filled week of Stephen Ministry training and waiting and wondering about starting all over when I get back the following week, which means we're already looking at not knowing anything for 3 weeks. Three weeks of knowing exactly what I know now. Not much but enough to make me sick to my stomach.
Hopefully a nurse will return the call I asked for .... asking her to at least look at the old scan to see if she sees anything.
And I didn't even mention the colitis.
Ugh.
And sigh.

J,
I'm feeling your frustration. Waiting is the worst part.
I hope your week flies by.

Waiting truly is the worst part...the unknown. Praying for you during this time especially...stay as busy as you can...that will help the time to fly by quickly and then you will be busy with the Stephen Ministry and that will help time to fly too.
Okay, I'm sounding like a Mom now . . . did you ask them to put you on the list if they had a cancellation earlier to call? Better yet, call 911, have yourself ambulanced in with your records in hand :)
J,
Can you call back and ask if you can bring in the scans so she can look at them prior to your appointment? Worth a try?
Love you, V.
Not to lessen your situation, but I sort of have the same issue going. I had back surgery in September, had excruciating back pain in November, had to go back to my Primary Care Manager at that point so she could order me an MRI, so the MRI specialist could tell her that I have scar tissue pressing on the nerves, so that she can tell the off base referral people that I need to see the doctor downtown, so she can tell me that I need to talk to the surgeon about back surgery, so he can schedule me an appointment to see him to talk about surgery and then I can schedule my surgery, AGAIN WHEW! That was a keyboard full! We are praying for you though and hope all is well.
Miss and love you bunches and bunches!

Heard a song on the radio today and from the first line immediately thought of you...Natalie Grant, "Our Hope Endures." would send you the lyrics, but I'm not computer saavy enough to find them, but maybe you can. Thinking of and praying for you. susan
