....in a few ways :P
ANYWAY!
Today was the big visit to the cancer hospital and it was one was hell of a long day.
We got there at 9:30am and the registration lady told me that I DID NOT have bloodwork and x-rays... I assured her about 12842 times that I DO have them. She told me to go to the 10th floor and wait for my doctor, if he wanted me to have those, he'd order them. Soooo... we sit there from 9:30 to 10:30 an an Aide came out and asked if we needed anything while waiting. I said "Yes, I am POSITIVE that I have labs and x-rays but the woman downstairs said no, can you check on this for me?" She came back in 2 minutes and said "OH YES! You absolutely have those, go to the next building." .......It was freaking 30* out today and pouring rain.
The doctor finally came in to see me around 11:30am. Honestly, I just love this doctor. I had a doctor for 2 years, the one that was there when I did chemotherapy and whatnot but I hated her. I heard her talking shit about me because I wanted a CT scan on my legs (for severe pain) and she made me wait FOUR hours and then I heard her telling her nurse that I was just going to have to wait even longer because there were patients that actually deserved her attention. I made a HUGE deal out of this to the hospital and they sent me gas cards and stuff and then introduced me to Dr. O -- he's monotone and he twitches but he's AWESOME.
Did I mention that he said to NOT listen to my other doctor and that 1 baby or 10 babies in my stomach is nooottt putting me at risk. Did you read that....
I AM NOT GOING TO BE AT RISK. I trust this man with my life and I totally freaking believe what he says. My other doctor, she's a crock of shit. He said if I wanted a second or third opinion on this situation that he wouldn't be offended and he would direct me to where I needed to go. I said no because I DO trust him. :)
They fit me in for a last minute physical therapy session because my left leg is very swollen and fluid filled. I was fitted for a compression stocking, hoping to order that this week.
My best friend, husband and myself had lunch at Rooster's and then we went to pick up my rings. I had to send them out at their 6 month inspection for a loose diamond and I've been without them for TWO weeks... (feels like a lifetime).
And just because I am picture happy....
