Edit #2: 2nd one is out (lol if Im getting the play by play.. so are you guys!)

im home
i am really trying not to be angry right now i appologize now for any swears that may end up in here
so the test i had - it was not a HIDA scan (even the doc at the hospital called it a HIDA scan) it was a Ct with dye, thats it, but it did thankfully show that it is not bowel related, so that is good, there is no leaks, that is good, but also said gallbladder didnt show any abnormalities - thats what my ultrasound said too - so NOW he says i need to have the HIDA scan as it is possible gallbladder problems dont show on CT scans - wft? if he knew that then why the hell did i have the CT and not the HIDA scan? i dont get it
farries is very disappointed that nohrs office has not called me to book me in to see him as his words were - "this is a complication from HIS surgery, he needs to step up here". Farries said he can only do so much, he is ordering another scan, but he wants Nohr to see me now - he sent a letter to nohr, he has talked to nohr and was under the understanding that he was going to see me, yet i have heard nothing from his office, so now i get to call again, so thats what i will do and also i imagine will wait weeks for yet this other test that i thought i was having - so angry right now - i dont get why this is happening - but at least i know its not life threatening according to that test anyway and i guess i will rely on iv fluids and myself to keep me going until i get through to nohrs office
anyway, i best get my butt to work, i wanted to stop home and post this update
love yous all
c.

Maybe you should cry, sweetie.
Maybe its time to get on that plane to Jen. You already know how I feel about all of this and if I were close by I can tell you that I wouldn't be holding my tongue, that's for sure. I understand Farries point about it being Nohr's respondsibility but in the meantime you must just feel like the patient no one wants. I'm sorry hun...I just don't know what to say.

Nothing nice to say about the docs so I'll keep my mouth shut...
Carrie, I'm more sorry than I can say, I know how you feel and if you wnat to cry I say go for it... it might do you some good. For me I cry first, then get angry and then something happens!
Please take care of yourself and either go see Jen.. I'll pitch in for the plane ticket... or camp out in Nohr's office.

i just spoke with nohrs office - still not giving me an appt - she said she will call me back, she had to verify something first
i am getting conflicting info - farries says he has sent a letter and talked with nohr about my situation - michelle is saying there is nothing on my file that indicates i have a referral to nohr - why do i need a referral back to nohr? he is my surgeon for f%$k sakes
