November 2, and not a minute too soon!!

I've been trying to get a surgery date since early May. My doctor went through 2 or 3 nurses, so every time I called, it was as if for the first time. A couple of times, they tried to tell me I wasn't a patient of his at all. Finally, after tons of lab tests, psych screen, sleep study and subsequent fitting for a CPAP machine, visit with a Pulmonologist, heart study, MORE lab tests - my doctor up and leaves!!! One of his associates has taken over all his patients, and I've FINALLY gotten a date!!! I was afraid it wasn't even going to be this year, but I lucked out!!! WOOHOO!!! Judith P

Judith, Good luck and keep in touch. We can be surgery sisters. Even thou we are a few states away, I will check up on you. Gail
