Today I am pissed!
I woke up this morning, expecting an Ablation procedure. I was not sure because no one from my Doctors office had been in to see me since yesterday morning to keep me informed.
Breakfast came and I refused it. Dr Kadel stopped in but while he is in the same office as Dr. Byazrova, he is not on the team to do the Ablation, so he didn't know anything.
I finally asked my nurse to see if she could find out anything or if any Doctors where coming around. That was about 9:30.
About an hour later the nurse told me she found out the surgery was moved to Friday.........maybe. Nothing definite. It is after noon and I have yet to talk to one of my Doctors.
In the meantime, I've had lunch and better yet, I have had a shower. HALLELUJAH!
If they would have had a TV in the bathroom, I would not have come out.
UPDATE: About 4:00 I got a visit from Samantha, Byazrova's Physician Assistant. I expressed that I was feeling forgotten and she was very gracious and apologized and explained what has been going on.
What has been going on is that they have finally managed to get the ablation scheduled for Friday at 7:30AM. In the meantime, I have been removed from the IV Drip of Amiodorone and I am allowed to walk around the floor.
Dr. Taylor came and talked to both Susan and I around six. He explained what's been happening. Apparently, an ablation is not considered an emergency procedure. As such, it is difficult to assemble a surgical team on short notice.
Anyway, both Taylor and Byazrova will perform the surgery and hopefully, all will go well.
If not, this is almost my last post.
