Freaking out and frustrated!!



Recommended Posts

So my ride for my EGD and surgery next week just had to back out. And I'm having issues finding someone else. Ugh!!!! I'm going to be so mad if I have to cancel over something so stupid as this!

No. I have to have a responsible person present. Plus the can would cost a fortune. It's an hour drive each way, longer if there is traffic.

Is there a community agency you can call to help you out. Here in Toronto we have the United Way. They helped me out once when I need to get to a pre-op appointment for surgery and the hospital was outside of Toronto and my sister couldn't take me. There was no cost to me. I did buy the driver a couple of cups of coffee :)

It might be worth a phone call.

Just a thought.

Awww... I wish I were closer and could help. I live in FL and will be traveling to the True Results in TX. I hope you find a solution and I would definitely look into that Tom suggested.

take a friend with you and hop a bus to do this.

if you are a church person, ask someone there.

(there is always a way if you look)

missy was right about the cab part but an hour drive to and fro would cost alot.

Hospitals will no longer let people who have been sedated leave with public transportation. Its a risk for the patient. I would call the united way, red cross and any other agency to see if someone would take you. Im sure there is a way.

I thought I deleted this thread but since it won't delete I thought I'd post again to say...

Yay!!! I got my rides situated and all is well. EGD is still on for Monday and banding/hernia repair on Thursday. :)
