January? :'(

Somebody needs to beat the crap out of whoever scheduled that far away.

Are there any other neuro's you can call.

Or call the January Jerk back and ask if they have a Cancellation List you can be put on. You know.....if another patient cancels their appointment they'll call you.

And when you call try to work in words like suicide. Good luck.

Yeah i can't get into any other neuro's around here....and they said my case wasn't "emergent" enough for lack of lengthy documentation of my CH's!

ANd WOW i can not believe i didnt think to call and be put ona cancellation list. I am just so frustrated with the whole thing that i just want to say F*CK it but ah well life goes on and this too shall pass.

I agree with Bob...call back and get put on a cancellation list....I remember someone on the mb once reminded the receptionist at their Doctor's office that the other name for chs was suicide headaches...they got an appointment pretty fast after that...smiles,nancyc

I am very sorry Tara, you are only allowed to bitch on days of the week that end in the letter "Y" ... OOPS !!! Looks like you lucked out !!! This is one of those days!!!

Now, you have your instructions, and you know what to do, right? You ARE going to call this specialist first thing on Monday morning, right? You ARE going to be forceful, right? You ARE going to get bitchy if needed, right? (If you need brush up lessons on being bitchy, there are one or two [or more] EXPERT bitches here to give you pointers) You ARE going to remember the name of what you have is "suicide headaches" right?

Let us know how it works out.

Go get'em, girl!!!
Chuck

PS: And just because it is you, that live up there in New England, you can even be "wicked" bitchy if you have to ...
