Finally made the call...
| Wed, 01-12-2005 - 1:58pm |
It took two days but I managed it. Making one for the reproductive endocrinologist was easy. But the pdoc terrified me. I had to leave a message for one of the nurses to call me back to make an appt. I couldn't really decide if my current situation would really be classified as "urgent" so I went ahead and just left a message. I don't want to look like an alarmist. Hope it doesn't take them days and days to call back though. It's a very large practice. I already saw my my new PCP for the referrals. He was very nice. It's been sooo long since I actually had a real PCP I forgot what it's like. He wants me to come in for a complete physical soon. I'll hold off on that. One thing at a time. I almost fainted while on the phone to the pdoc office. Stress levels were extremely high. Took an hour for my heart to stop trying to pop out of my chest. I don't know WHY this is stressing me so bad! Last night I dreamed (I hope) I was calling a bunch of radio stations and woke up with the phone in my hand. I hope I didn't REALLY call any! Whew!

Jodie,
Yay for you!! Way to go!!!!
I'm always afraid to go to a new pdoc. He has a lot of power in my life. He's the one who ultimatly decides what kind of help I'm going to get. I was only ever disappoint by one. I Fired him and moved on. You can do this.
I can't tell you how proud I am of you! I know it took allot of guts to make this move.
Love,
Jamie
Love,
Way to go. I understand the anxiety. I was so nervous calling the mental health clinic that I nearly had a panic attack while talking to the intake worker. It also is something that I've been meaning to do for many months and haven't. Now I wish I had because I'll be waiting another 6 mons to get in.
You'll get through the appointment just fine. Try not to stress too much, although I know that can be hard.
