Thank you all! It's good to know that someone understands.

As for making the appt, I have to have the referral in place first.

I will call my doctor's office when they open (they're open every day), to make sure they put it in. I can check the status of the referral online on my insurance's website. It will be listed once it's approved.

And really, if my doctor was that worried about it she'd have sent him to the Cardiologist immediately instead of putting a regular referral in. She is worried about it, but I guess it's not a life or death situation.

I'm just really hurt by those women.
