Hmmm will they remove my leg too?

Posted by SleepyAdia on July 03, 2002 at 18:53:28:

Today I was going to the lab to get my pre-op blood work done. I was looking at the order, and saw the surgeries I was having.

Funny thing was, that one of the procedures was not mentioned and another that I was NOT having was mentioned!

I called the doctor and the nurse noticed there were a couple of CONFLICTING things.

I told her it does not inspire much confidence.

They called back and said the important paperwork was right, and they don't do the adnoidectomy that I was NOT supposed to get done that was mistakenly put on the paperwork, anyway cuz they do not do that for adults since the adnoids are usually shrunk to almost nothing.

Sometimes I just want to cancel this whole thing and go thru the year or whatever it takes to find another doctor and all the testing and all that again.
