Initial consultation

Well I got brave today and thought I would take matters into my own hands. I was going to try to wait patiently but then I thought I better check to make sure they had received my paperwork. Well yes indeed they did have my paperwork and I was in the pile to be scheduled for an initial consultation. So I have my initial appointment on October 3rd. Yeah! I feel like I'm really going to get to do this now!

CONGRATS!!! Just remember to have patients. It is a long journey. Elizabeth

Gail, You go Girl !!! Yes, You have to be follow up on the medical workers. They are all unstaffed. It makes a differce if you keep on top of them. When I called the U Of Iowa last Sept. They told me it would take 1 year to get schduled for the Initial appointment. Well I wasn't going to wait. I called and found out who schedules this and told her to call me if she got a cancelation That worked. If I hadn't thought outside of the box and took this into my own hands. I wouldn't be having surgery on Sept 2 I would be having the Initial Appointment. Trust me it works I believe, I believe, I believe I can fly...... Lisa J

Congrats you've taken the first of many steps toward the finally step to the other side . Waiting and alot of patience is all part of the process > Good Luck Sheila
