Imaging rang me on Tuesday at 5pm. Your scan for tomorrow is cancelled. You don’t need it.

Scan on 13th you do need.

I rang Imaging on account of 20 messages onERIC . After waiting 50 minutes on the call queue a lady answered. Ah she said ring nephrology. Ask them why they want you to have so many scans.

Nephrology wouldn’t answer phone. I emailed. Two days later there was a reply. Ring imaging. FFS.

So now I have a CT scan alternate Wednesdays in October. I also have an MRI on the other Wednesday every fortnight in October. I have 20 letters via first class post to book cancel and rebook those.

Friday. 5 pm. I missed a call on my mobile. Weirdly I do not sit staring at phone all day. It was ‘ No caller id ‘. I picked up the message at 17:05. It said this is a nurse from your hospital. I need to speak to you urgently. I’ll try again on Monday.

FFS. Can’t they leave a number to call or say who they are where they are or RING AGAIN?

Am I bovvered? Should I be? Well let’s see what Monday brings.

Breaking news. Saturday.today. First class post letter today. Another scan on Saturday 23rd. What?! If I don’t turn up it’ll cost the NHS £133. If I do turn up the number of stamps. Unused train tickets. Phone calls. Emails. And all the rest will cost considerably more. This is nuts.
