Waited hours for my call, phone finally rings; hello this is the doctor, what can I do for you? I said you made the arrangement to call me to discuss test results and the apparent failure of my cystoscopy.
From then on such a waste of time. I was holding all the copy paperwork. The GP had no paperwork, no results, no records and said everything is quite normal. I said if you are telling me the producing of blood, clots, scabs and pain is normal then I am happy to avoid further interference and I will put up with it.. She said its not normal but the procedure was only a few weeks ago so it hasn't settled down. I said, actually a few months ago, just refer me to the urology consultant whose name is on all the letters you don't have.
She said I will do that then hung up! Never had that experience before!
Unlike my cancer this is not going to kill me so just a massive nuisance that bothered her indoors more than me!
Send me cuddles by the dozen!
I now have an image of you standing on a table in front of a computer in a very undignified position. All I can say is good luck and mind you don't fall off. Rainie x
