The wrong test... are you serious???

Mar 29, 2009

Just when I thought I was done with all my pre-op stuff, waiting on the dr to review it and submit it. I get a call saying that they don't have my gallbladder ultrasound. I said well when I made the appt, that was what I told the Dr office what I needed. I told them that I changed from getting the Lapband to the RNY, that so that means I don't need to get the UGI, I needed a gallballer ultrasound, the doctors office kept telling me that they didnt do that, although it was an gastroenterologist group, I stated several times to the nurse that I need to get this done for preop RNY surgery. Me thinking that they knew more than me, I trusted that what they said is what I needed. I just want to slap somebody. So nowwww. I have to maybe, take more time off work(I need all the time I can keep) and go take another test, the copays are killing me. A 1700.00 test for what? NOTHING. Man, I should ask the doctor to do this one on the house, since his people messed up. Just a minor set back!!!!
