::lets go brenda lets go!::
Tonsils out on the 12th of August!! YAY!
0920: got to the ANT office
1100: actually saw the doctor
1245: actually got in to see brenda, the surgery scheduler woman. So Brenda at the nice lil ENT place i went to made sure i was appreciative of the fact i got a date on such short notice! lucky lucky lucky fuckin me! i told her i wanted to get this done before i go back to FSU, Aug 24th..she goes "and its JULY?" while pointing at her watch. (the watch did NOT show the date, stupid woman.) at that point i went off about how i just wanted the god damn invisalign and im soooo sorry that i didn't come in sooner. but damn! if it weren't for my fake aunt christie i wouldn't have been in til aug 29th, great time to have an appt while im in TallY! then she gets on my ass because i didn't put my leukemia history on the sheet. i mentioned i was going in on monday to do my annual followup and she's like what? leukemia? when!? it wasn't on the pack of 3 papers she was looking at but it was on 2 other forms of the fuckin 30 i filled out!! "oh, well this is the one I look at so put that down"
she has me put it under the Any history of emotional or psychiatric problems not mentioned above? i answered no. apparently that was where i was supposed to put down my cancer history. woman! cancer of the BLOOD!!!! NOT CANCER OF MY EMOTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they didn't send me to a psychiatrist to cure me now did they?!!?!? then i have to have CLEARANCE to get the damn surgery done by my GP....ooo ya the one in tallahassee...GREAT. my moms doctor wont see me, learned that when i had my fuckin fever. i don't wanna see my pediatrician cuz the woman drives me insane with her fuckin conservative prescription pad. and well im already going to clinic on monday, they check to make sure there's no signs of cancer, they do blood, etc....why the fuck can't they give me clearance for surgery??? ooooo because Dr. T is my cancer doctor, just like this guy is my ENT doctor, and being that he's my "cancer" doctor he can't give the OK that my heart's not clogged up with shit. ya that makes sense. so i ask if i can get clearance from my FAA doctor. no, go see Dr. Fein if she'll take you since you're 19. dandy. So the guy who cured cancer in me and the guy who certifies im physically and mentally healthy enough to operate a plane cannnot clear me for surgery but the lady who hands out lollipops CAN! WTF then she's sending me to Quest ::always a joy:: for bloodwork, they don't associate with Jackson Memorial so the bloodwork they do there just won't be good enough! im just sitting there like i dont give a flying fuck just shoot me up with w/e you need and get this over with!!!!!!!!!! we decided it was a blessing in disguise i failed physics...it was all i could do not to schedule something during my lab final and calc2 final. oh and then she leaves me in the office with Baptist on hold while she ate lunch and said if someone picked up to "holler", so of course my mom and i just start hollering. what are we supposed to say? so we just practice screaming; screaming, screaming HELP, screaming "these people are never going to let me eat!", etc. 3 people came on and we start screaming for Brenda while i'm telling the other person to hold on brenda's coming and by the time she gets there we're back on hold. christ! i dont give a damn about the "risks" of surgery, the only one that matters is death, and if that happens im not gonna give a crap about the other risks!! but im done ranting, i have a date, and screw brenda. her and her making me feel bad for going to school. "Well NORMALLY we like to see the patients 2 weeks after, but since you won't be here we'll just HAVE to do it this way." and this woman is just the scheduling lady! she kept going on about "well MY doctor asks" whatever to be done, imet the guy he didnt seem NEARLY as uptight as brenda. just get on the bloody phone and make some room for me! thats it! don't lecture me on how i waited til the end of summer just like ALL the other parents did who forgor they wanted this done before school started. ok, really done now.
