😃 Cancellation 😃

QVCkitty1 — Wed, 29 Dec 2021 15:27:46 GMT

I just got a call canceling an appointment I had this morning. Am I upset, heck no. Am I the only one who is actually glad when plans are changed and I don't have to go out ? A week won't make a difference, and I can read my book. 😺

I have an appointment tomorrow for a mammogram. I'd be thrilled and delighted if they'd call and cancel it. I'm wondering, given the omicron being so contagious, even its even wise to do this right now?

@Kachina624, this is one appointment I would keep. I would double mask and be sure to wash my hands after. I also wear my glasses in case someone feels the need to cough or sneeze in my direction. Just a personal note, I make my appt for my mammogram 1 year and a day after my last. In 2001 my day fell on a Sunday so I scheduled the test for the Monday morning. I received the call that I needed further testing and there it was, breast cancer. So thankful that it was stage 1 but what if I would have waited? Mine was a mass, not feeling it by myself or even my gyn. Just my thought.

My husband had an emergency dental appointment last week. They immediately realized that they would need more time and canceled and rescheduled the next patient. The dentists were laughing and said they were sure the patient would be very happy!

My husband's colonoscopy procedure for next week has been canceled. It was to take place at the hospital, but has been rescheduled for March due to dangerously overcrowded conditions.

@cookie16 Yours is as good a recommendation for keeping the appointment as I've ever heard. Thanks. Hope you're okay now.

I have a dr. appointment today, I am not sick...just needed a 'script' refill and they are 'making' me come to the office. Due to the virus, I think this is unnecessary but at least they will get their payment from my insurance co. for an office visit.

deepwaterdotter, I was able to get my Colonoscopy on 12/14/21 as scheduled. I had a polyp removed, so I was so blessed that my appt. wasn't cancelled. Our hospital is full right now too. We live in S. WI.

I have my monthly chiropractor adjustment this morning. I just hope he is running on time. He is a very skilled chiropractor but man oh man, he NEVER runs on time. He ran so late with my husband's appointment 2 weeks ago (over an hour wait), that my husband finally had to leave. That's unacceptable as far as I'm concerned.

@Kachina624 ,

This appointment is very wise to keep. I know from experience.

@seaBreeze

When you see your doctor I would ask if that's necessary. I belong to a system in California called Kaiser Permanente. Most things can be done online, but a few years ago, I needed a refill and the person reading my message called me back and insisted that I see the doctor since I had been on this medicine for awhile. I honestly can't remember what it was for. When I get in to see my Doctor she asks me what is going on. I told her nothing. I was just there for a new script. She told me, if that ever happened again make sure that someone tells her to read the message. My doctor told me that she never would have made me come into the office just for that.

@Kachina624 , Thank you for asking, I am and have been fine since the diagnosis and treatment which lasted almost a full year and then 5 years of taking Arimidex. I am grateful for many years of good health since. Good luck with your decision, either way.

@cookie16 OH, I'm going. Just got a recorded call reminding me of my appointment. My sister is a breast cancer survivor so I'm at risk.
