OH HOW THEY LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH THE NURSES and assistants and whoever they are UGH!!!!!!
why do they lie.. I found out today that NO-ONE has done ANYTHING that they were "SUPPOSED" to do.. I can scream and cry all at the same time..
First-I went to my new pcp and she was very delightful and helpful to start me on my way with making my appointments and things of that nature that I needed done..
Well today I called to see if my medical records had come back.. OF course NO ONE EVER received a medical release form from my new pcp(which by the way i KNOW they are LYING..I stood there and watched her fax it over... So now I'm begging my new pcp nurse to re-fax all the medical release forms so my OLD doctors can send in my medical records.. what a headache!!!!! without those records i can't get a 5 year weight history and proceed even though I have ALL the test that I need so far schedule like my venous duplex, gall baldder ultrasound, cbc-tsh, chest x-ray and ekg.. what's the point of going through of all this if i can't even make a schedule with Dr. mILES..
I just want to cry!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with mare you have to stay on top of it and get copies of everything . I even went as far as getting my own fax line and did my own faxing so I knew what had been sent and what was still needed. Yes this is worth it because we are talking about your life. I fought my battle getting a surgery date for 3 years but I hung in there. Everyone's story is different but hang in there and dont give up. Annie
