Is there a doctor in the house?

Here comes a rant...

If you are a doctor and someone comes to see you with some bad pain, don't rush running tests on a Thursday and tell that patient that you will call them Friday with the results and then take the day off and not have someone cover....

Short version of story:

Been in abdominal pain since Monday night

Went to doctor Thursday afternoon

doctor rushes blood tests and schedules ultrasound on gallbladder for 0830 Friday morning

I went to the ultrasound

my pain has eased significantly since Thursday night, was even able to eat today, doctor has no clue of this.

I called them at 4:45 to ask if my results were in and to talk to doc.

response I get is "Shes not here today but we have a printout of your blood test if you want it"

so now I get to sit all weekend wondering if I will be having surgery or what... Im nervous, and a tad scared.

If the pain comes back full strength I will go to the ER...

end rant
