… Sorry, Dawn 
Worry is awful, and I know sometimes we can’t help ourselves. Others have given you what I think is great advice: call your doctor and put him to work *for* you. >So hang on to those quits you guys and gals. It has rather >surprised me that I haven’t been at all tempted to calm myself with a >cigarette.
… That is so amazing. Way to go 
I hope it all turns out all right for you. (((((Dawn))))) —– Maddie, HOF

Glad you made this on topic Dawn dear Seriously, I would do what everyone here has said – call your doctor. It’s not good for you to sit around stewing – and hopefully the news will be good. Thinking of you hon…and hoping your little pohutakawas are doing well Hugs Paula
Response:
This would scare me too. DG has a point. Why not call and just SEE if you can speak to your doctor? It’s worth a try, I think. Seems very unfair to make you wait so long while not knowing what’s up. Surely your doctor will understand that. Let us know, okay? I’ll be looking for your posts, Dawn. * * Goldie * *

Call your Doctor. In my clinic I can call & speak to my Dr’s nurse anytime & then she relays the message & gets back to me. I had the same thing happen when waiting for liver function tests. The clinic schedules an appointment with a liver specialist due to test results. Got me thinking –WHAT THE HELL DID THE TEST RESULTS SHOW?????? Then the clinic calls & puts off the specialist’s appointment another week. After stewing a day I called my doctor. He put my mind at ease….the test results were normal. If I would have had to live with the doubt for a week it would have killed me. I was an emotional wreck after one day. Call your doctor and ask why the appointment. Put your mind at ease.

It’s maddening that doctors do this Dawn…. I’ll be thinking of you and thanks for the reminder that no matter what stress, strain or worry, there is never a good reason to light up. Take Care. Skyler 1yr+
Response:
I don’t know about you, Dawn, but sometimes I forget that I have a RIGHT to speak to my doctor. Phone and ask to SPEAK to the Dr. Leave a message, and have him/her call you back. Just say, your receptionist scared me — should I be lighting candles here, or can I hold off on worrying till I see you on Friday? The doc will bill healthcare for the phone call, so you’re not asking for a favour. You’re asking him to do his job. Good luck, andn …….yeah……dont’ worry!! ;-P DG

Ouch! Scary stuff indeed … I’d be pooing my pants by now if I was in that position, although quite irrationally. He probably just wants to see you to talk through your results rather than just send a letter. If he wanted to tell you you have something immediately life threatening your appointment would almost certainly be for today. >Sure doctors are human, and deserve time to have a life of their own, but >once upon a time family doctors cared about their patients.

It’s the receptionists I hate. They seem to think it’s their job to make sure nobody who calls the centre actually gets to see any of the doctors. Receptionist:<briskly> "Hello, medical centre." Patient:"Please can I make an appointment to see the doctor." Receptionist:"I can fit you in on Tuesday 30th December" Patient:"But that’s two months away … haven’t you anything sooner?" Receptionist:"Is it an emergency?" Patient:"Not yet, but it probably will be be by December." >There’s no point in worrying out loud, what can anyone say except "I’m sure >you’re worrying over nothing." Hey, they may be right.

I should think so too! We don’t like off-topic posts here. <j/k> Try not to worry, Dawn, it’s not going to make any difference, and it’ll just make you feel lousy until you finally get to see the doc. Be sure and post and let us know when you’ve been and it turns out to be an over-zealous receptionist.
