Disappointed
Mar. 14th, 2012 06:04 pm Today didn't go as planned. Nothing truly dire happened, but I didn't get the answer I was hoping for from the neurologist, and now I feel deflated and crappy. -__-;
Basically, the results of my recent MRI aren't back yet so the neurologist can't confirm weather or not the blood clot is gone. I am also due to get an appointment with a blood specialist to check and see if there is a genetic risk for me developing clots in the future. Before I see that specialist, I apparently can't come off warfarin, and if I'm not off warfarin the surgeon will be very leery about doing my chest over the summer.
I have not received a letter from the blood specialist yet, and he has not replied to the neurologist's referral letter yet. The neurologist is happy to just wait for the letter to turn up, but I am starting to get anxious. I am worried that this will all drag on, and I will miss the chance to have my chest done this summer. -__-; And I really, really need it to go ahead. This is the closest I have ever been to actually getting the surgery I need, and I feel like I am watching it slip away.
I am going to spend the rest of the evening hiding in a computer game. I have a power-point to read through too, but that won't take very long.
