Hey all,
I have two medical appointments coming up - I stupidly (accidentally) booked them both for the same day. This means that, since they are within blocks of each other (but not really accessible by walking - meaning I have to pay twice for parking in the city - lovely!) I will be hanging around for FOUR hours in between appointments. The first appointment of the day is an ultrasound follow-up appointment for my 4 year cancer check up. The 2nd is just a rheumatology appointment for the arthritis in my back. But hanging out in either hospital is not my idea of a good time. I was going to cancel the ultrasound in the a.m. & reschedule it but then I thought 'it's going to be done at some point - and if I skip it I may be sorry' - but then I got all anxious anyway because, as I say, just walking into the cancer center makes me anxious (and I feel like an idiot for it too.....but I get very keyed up and anxious whenever i'm there). The appointments aren't til thursday - and i'm already upset. Just wanted to vent I guess. Not much I can do about it - I could take something the day of I guess to calm me down...but sitting between appointments for four hours is going to be less than fun (especially with my immune issues - being in hospitals of any kind is stressful). Debating if I should leave cancer center, go get coffee on the main road & then head back into the city for the 2nd appointment....I might....especially to avoid paying for four hours of extra parking!
