2 down, 4 to go
Hi ladies, again, I need to vent. Went to the hospital for 3 appointments yesterday. 8am for my picc to be inserted, had to be there at 7am. All went well and picc was in at 8.30am. Didn't hurt as mu...
Good on you Hazel for speaking up about the new scheduled appointment and time delay between both oncologist and chemo. That is way too long to have you waiting. I am a medical receptionist and know full well that mistakes can happen with appointments especially when more than one appointment is being made on the same day with different doctors or nurses. If you always speak up and ask questions nicely you will find that most receptionists will bend over backward to try to rectify the situation. I know when I have stuffed up on the odd occassion lol , which we have all done, I have felt absolutely gutted to the point where I can't concentrate for quite some time. The rule here, I think in all of this is that where people are involved mistakes can happen. So don't hesitate to ask questions and point out your concerns.
I love your attitude toward your appointment this afternoon with applying your make-up. Yesterday the breast care nurse gave me the pamphlet on LGFB for me to look into for the New Year. I am a bit nervous about it, but I remember reading your post about that and will make the effort to go to one of their meetings.
All this best this afternoon.
Love Joy xx
