Went to the Dr.
July 7th, 2008
I had an appt at 9am. Got there about 8:45 and it was 10:30 before I ever saw the Dr. When he finally comes in, he just instructs the nurse to take off my bandage. She does so. He says it looks ok. I point out that its red and swollen still on the opposite side. He says.. did I put u on antibiotics? Like he isnt even familiar with my case. I mean come on. He has saw me a zillion times in the last month. I said yeah, Cipro. He says ok, come in Thurs to get your stitches out. Like the redness was no big deal. I pray its not. I was so aggrevated. He spent maybe 2 minutes with me after I sat all that time. Why didnt they have me come in Thurs to begin with or take out the stitches today? Its a 20 minute drive, Michael works days, so I have to get a babysitter for me to go, gas is $4.09 a gallon. UGH!!!!!! Then to top things off, I was NOT happy with the scale!!!!

Same here…every time I go to my surgeon. I had to track him down last time to ask him questions…he had moved on to another patient and told me he was coming back!! I think they just try to see as many as they can in an hour’s time…MONEY! MONEY!!! They don’t usually get paid for post-ops so we are not top priority!!!

kisses and hugs baileysmomma!!!!!!
I’m glad you’re healing up and the antibiotics will help - thank goodness it’s not that nasty other stuff.
that whole medical thing sometimes is an absolute shit - trust me - i know
that nasty scale - sorry about that thing too.
