A few minutes ago, I went down to get my mail and there was an envelope from Igenex, so I said to my son, "Here it is!"

I was SO excited, shaking as I opened the envelope, and it was a.....statement of my payment!

I was going to say "Argh," but maybe I should say...Uffda! Sad

Well, folks, at least I know it is here.

And my "new doc?"

Yes, she moved to a new clinic, and I am finding it impossilbe to find a phone number to MAKE the follow up appointment.

I did find one number, but I sit on hold for an hour, finally leaving a message.

The woman called me back yesterday, while I was in the hospital for my procedure, but when I called back I received another voice mail message, so I asked her to call me AGAIN.

Maybe "new doc" will send me a copy of the test like she did the CD57 before I can even get in to see her again.

Either way, I will be keeping you all posted.

The waiting game is ALMOST over, my new friends! Smile

Best Wishes,

Hope :)

a little more patience..

It's like waiting for Christmas morning when you are a kid and it's Christmas EVE LOL

Glad it's almost over girl Smile

With Him we "live" no matter the circumstances. At His feet peace of mind can be found. Peace that passes all understanding is my quest now and forever.

Numbers 6:24-26
"The LORD bless you and keep you;the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace."

Hey, that's good because it means the results are on their way *soon*! Wink

Of course in my case, the doctor called me up when the results came in and said "You should schedule an appointment to come back." No mention of positive, negative, etc.

So I said, "Anything interesting?" (hint, hint Wink ) and he responded,

"Many interesting things."

Haaaaaha, that was the most suspenseful wait for an appointment ever! I later concluded that he simply didn't have the results in front of him at the time, and that's why he couldn't elaborate. Because a few days later he called back to tell me I was positive.

silly doctors...
