From 1:30pm to 7:15PM the visiting nurse told me that a nurse would be out to give me the first of 5 shots. 8pm no nurse. I called the office. Oh it doesn't start til tomorrow. NO it starts TODAY. Then the nurse who was supposed to give me the shot called and said it had been cancelled. Did I still want it? YES. So I got my first shot of lovenex at 9:30pm. And to my great surprise it wasn't painful. First they take blood from your finger to measure some blood level and then a shot in the stomach.
The most painful part of this whole mess is working with the surgeon's office and the nursing company. My ins co called at 4:54pm to say that my disability is only approved to 9/28 because the dr's office has not returned the forms. So I called the office and oh we're very busy we don't have time to fill it out now. Maybe Monday. I swear if I get an ulcer from all this I'm suing the dr.
hugs ...
