Stupid buracracy. Stupid insurance.

I spent 40 minutes on the phone making an appt. at a clinic I've been going to for 4 years. This is ridiculous. The earliest they can get me in is the 28th. And to add insult to injury, I'm classed as a "New patient." My dr. moved to NC.


This is why it pays to memorize your policy and group number, boys and girls. I rattled them off on the phone, since my wallet was in the van.

You're now classified as a "new patient"? WTF? Ain't our health care system incomparable?

Hope you're not so sick that a mere three week delay will be a problem...

My doctor moved to North Carolina, and i haven't yet seen the one who took over. I'm late for my Annual. And now I have to have the Newbie work-up Before they can do the pelvic.

(After my last doctor accidentally opened the door on me, flashing everything pink I own at the whole nurses' station, I'm not entirely displeased to see a new one)

I'm not feeling ill. I just have a weird lump. And it's squishy.

I'm keeping my cool about it, and resolutely banishing images of biopsy needles, baldness from chemo and mastectomy scars from my mind. Hey, at least I have back-up boobs. 8)
