#my neurosurgeon's office called and canceled my appointment because he's now in surgery that day lol #and I'm not mad or anything because I know it's absolutely necessary #like I get it I certainly wouldn't want to be needing emergency neurosurgery and have the doctor not take me because he had appointments #but everything's fucked up now #they're offering me august 18th which is more than a week earlier than my original appointment #but my MRIs and CT scan haven't been approved by insurance yet #because the MRI place has been calling the wrong doctor for information lol #& I need to do the MRIs the day before the appointment bc I'm traveling 8+ hours to see him & I don't want to have to make the trip twice #he's like the specialist of specialists which is why I'm traveling that far #I know a lot of his patients come from a distance - the receptionist said I'm actually one of the closer ones #but anyway to do that means that all three tests need to be scheduled for the 17th #and this monday is the 16th #so now I need to see if the imaging centers have any openings for the 17th #and then if they do I need to see if the imaging centers can request for the MRIs to be rush approved #& if it somehow gets approved before the end of the work day on monday then my parents and I need to leave right then & drive to maryland #the reality is that I probably won't be able to see him the 18th because the MRIs really need to be done first #which really sucks because he doesn't have any openings for the following week & then the week after that my college starts back up #and between my schedule and the dr's schedule that means i'll have to miss one of my senior seminar classes which will mean that I'm already #off to a bad start #nevermind that my spine is killing me and the dr won't sign off on my physical therapy script until I have this appointment #it just sucks so bad #sorry ignore me this is long af I'm just upset #ari.txt
