Yay! Great news! Seeing the Orthopedic this Friday! Update
I've posted in the past about my hand problems fiasco. After many failed attempts at trying to receive help or a referral, I finally headed to another doctor. After giving me treatments that unfortunately didn't help, he said I need to see a hand surgeon and referred me. This was almost two month ago. I was told it's a 5-6 month wait for a consultation and I would also have my name on the cancellation list.
Guess what!? The surgeons office phoned me on Monday mentioning there is a cancellation and asked if I could come this Friday. I said yes! That was fast!
I'm hoping I don't need surgery and I'm also glad I kept pursuing until I found some help.
So anyone out there who has medical issues, keep searching until you find someone who will help you. :)
