It's Hard to Know Sometimes
Sometimes it is hard to know what to do...do I post this entry, do I wait on calls back from the doctor...do I wait patiently and calmly?
To risk providing more information than you want to know, I had blood in my stool this morning. The triage nurse in Dallas said to give it a day or 2, because it could be an internal hemmorhoid, but that we should not ignore it.
Shortly after that conversation, I had another stool, with even more blood. So, I called my GP (knowing my personal doctor is on vacation, because I talked to the office yesterday about referrals for my surgery). I am still waiting on their return call.
It is hard to know what to do: It is now Thursday. If I wait a day or 2 as per the triage nurse in Dallas, then I hit the weekend. Life slows down significantly here on the weekend. Which is why I called my GP's office. I am trying be a patient patient, but I wish they would call!
