......poo.

I must say I am a little flustered at the moment. I got a call from my NS office this morning and my doctor got pulled into an emergency surgery and I had to reschedule for Thursday at 8:30 in the morning.

I completely understand the situation and that someone needed him more then I did, but it still upset me. Like why did this happen on the day that I had to see him? :( I don't know why this upsets me so, but alas, I have waited years, I can wait 6 more days.....

I just don't want to. hahaha

I swear I really do understand the situation! I'm a good person, but for some reason I just want to throw I fit!!! UGH

Oh ANNND, could some of the meds I am on for other things be hiding and lessoning some of my symptoms? I am on like 14 medications for different things and none have been given to me for Chiari but we do know that these symptoms are not side effects of these meds.

Hi...since u r on soooooooo many meds, the drs will likely feel the symptoms r from them and not the chiari.....if, IF the symptoms and side effects match the meds.

Deff look up the side effects of ur meds to see if there is ne possibility.

I totally understand ur frustration and unfortunately it goes with the territory to get bumped for visits and even surgery...hang in there and vent all u feel u need to here : )
