Hey Al,
I in a pickle again. I am now on my second pcp in 2 months. I was supposed to have a myelogram this thur. and the surgeon cansel it because he didn't know what to do about the INR problem and I am allergic to the dye they used for the test so I have to be premedicated for the test.The cardiologist told the PCP to bridge me to the heparin because of my history of strokes and blood clots. Neither the PCP or neursergeon have a clue how to handle this. So Al, which DR. should have this knowledge of the what to do. This whole thing has me stressed to the max. They have set the test for next thur. but if they can't get thur. Sh***** together for the first one what makes me think they can do this for the second one. When I have had an abess tooth removed the Dr. that was taking care of the INR was the one that admitted me to the hosp. for the heparin bridge. I don't know if she d has the knowledge or if she just doesn't wanted to be bother with it. She still hasn't sent the script to QAS services so I can get supplies for my machine. I've call and left several messages and no ones bother to call back,. I sure know how to pick the winners!!!!!!!! I am almost ready to go back to my old Dr. he wasn't as bad as the last two I've had to deal with. I know the insurance co. probably thinks I am crazy. Well, today I had a complete melt down after the surgeon office called me to call the PCP to get this mess straight. But I finally took a stand a told her that the two Dr's should be talking to each other and to leave me out of it. Till they were ready to give advice about what to do before the test. What would you do? I talked to my daughter the RN and she said I have to stop letting theses people get to me . But I told her it was easy for her to say! She is a type A personalty like me.Thanks for letting me vent. I this keeps up I will big a patient at the local phy. ward.
