Topic: RE: UGH!! Just getting frustrated!

I called my PCP yesterday and I finally got my call back today! They JUST faxed in all the paperwork and everything else that was needed TODAY! So, they said that I should here back from EMMC by the end of the week (Monday the latest)!!!

It will happen when the time is right! Please stay focused on your goal, work at it. It will happen but not overnight it will take least 6 months to go through the entire process. It seems like forever I know. Start going to suport groups the more you attend before hand the more prepared you will be. Then suddenly you will be taking the long walk down the hall and it will seem like it happened all at once.

So, I called EMMC and asked if they had gotten my referral yet. Guess WHAT! They said that they haven't recieved it yet! It's been a week! Geez, does it really take that long to get the referral? I called my PCP and haveyet to recieve a call back from the Referral Specialist! Maybe it's fate telling me "Wake up Silly! You're not ever going to have the surgery!" Sorry to be a Negative Nancy! Just getting frustrated! Thanks for "listening" to my rant!
