So much better of a day.

We had planned for two weeks to go to Dandelion Chocolate in San Francisco this morning, but we all decided not to push my luck. I figure that just means we still get to look forward to it.

I put in a note to my family practitioner noting that I hadn’t been able to schedule the GI appointment to check on my Crohn’s till November (and that was in August) and maybe that should be moved up a bit? After that barfing and bleeding? I figured they’ll listen to her long before they will me. I want to stomp on this in the beginning stages and there are new meds out there to try.

The problem is that the doctors I’ve seen before have retired or left so I’m officially a New Patient trying to squeeze in.

Oh, the dreaded New Patient status! I hope they do find a place to wedge an appointment in a LOT sooner than November. (can you get on the wait lists, or do you need more advance notice of appointments than wait lists usually provide [varies by specialty and who-even-knows-what, but when appointments are booked out months in advance, inevitably *someone* has to cancel farther ahead of time than “I’m sick, can’t come tomorrow”])

I hope your doctor can lend some weight to the argument to get you in sooner!
