Nearly yelled at one of my doctors today. I sent them a message online asking what the holdup was with followups and referrals. It has been a month since they did the nerve conduction test and I've had no communication since. Well, once I messaged the neurosurgeon, his office became laser focused... on a mild case of carpal tunnel in my non-dominant hand rather than the synovial cyst in my spinal cord which was the original reason for my referral to this doctor. I had to browbeat them into walking and chewing gum at the same time. I've got a consult with this doc at the end of the month on the cyst and presumably a referral to some guys to look at my carpal tunnel.
Another doctor's referral I've got is for an ENT provider. Everything else from my whopper of a bronchitis episode in January is gone or healed with the exception of my voice. I still haven't got my head voice back which, to me, implies damage or long term healing still in progress and I would like to know which one.
Still haven't heard about my new work schedule or if I even have one. First thing in the morning, I get to call my boss and find out!
