Persona Non Grata
Thanks to my GP’s office, I’m now persona non grata in a number of doctors offices and clinics about town. Unfortunately, they’re doctors and clinics I need to see and visit.
When I left, my GP had left instructions with her staff to set up referral appointments with a Rhematoid Physician and an Imaging Clinic — one for a consultation and one for an ultrasound. The note on the paperwork said that all appointments should be made after July 11th. (You know, because I’d be out of the country.)
So, they made them all for before July 11th.
I came back to a bunch of nasty phone messages on my answering machine at home and my voice mail at work and to bewildered messages from her office staff as to why I hadn’t shown up to my appointments.
Well, I called her office yesterday and talked to one of her nurses, who is trying to work it out now. The Rhematoid Physician’s office called me personally and rudely told me that they have nothing in their schedule any time soon and they will just have to call me back and let me know some time in the future. Sadly, that’s the one I need the most as that’s the one who’ll do the fibromyalgia testing.
What a mess!

They better straighten that out. That’s ridiculous. Good luck!
