StayAtHomeMom Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 I went today to see my specialist and for my oldest son to see him for the first time. I was hoping for my specialist to rule out or confirm my suspicions that my oldest son has POTS too. 3 hours to get there. Had to make a pitstop for my job, but we got there just barely on time. We sat in the waiting room for about an hour (the hour wait is typical). I about fell asleep I was so tired. Receptionist starts calling people up. Apparently my specialist had to leave for the rest of the day due to an emergency. Soonest we could reschedule was January 21st. I wanted to be mad, but honestly I was just worn out and sad. I have to wait another month to have my son checked On a good note: I made it there and back safely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Wow how frustrating. So sorry. That's a long time to wait when he's feeling poorly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 I am sooo sorry! What a terrible disappointment! I understand that emergencies occur on both sides ( doctors as well as patients ) but this is truly horrific. Just hang in there ( not like you have a choice ) and try again in January. In the meantime try to be well ( both of you ) as best you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StayAtHomeMom Posted December 14, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Yea. Originally he was set to see him the end of October. But they called and rescheduled that one about 2 weeks before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My specialist is one of those few good doctors I have found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
