We talked about this earlier. We have decided to start a new thread, probably Tuesday morning, just before we head for the hospital.

We're a bit annoyed right now - we're due down in Boston tomorrow to see Dr Z and were told yesterday that we will have to also go for Kendall to have another CAT scan - the third in a year.

Today we got a phone call - they wanted us there at 8.00am tomorrow form a pre-op exam for the anasthesiologist. We pointed out that, with a two hour journey from Portland, there was no way we were going to be able to do that. Now we have to kick our heels from 1.00pm to 2.00pm, between the CAT scan and the pre-op and hope that they can do that at the given time to allow us to get back to the 2.30 bus, otherwise there will be more heel kicking until the 3.30 bus!

Needless to say, we made our feelings pretty clear - the person we spoke to was unable to say why we hadn't been told about this earlier in the week. We are heading up state when we get back and a delay will make it even later to get there tomorrow evening.

I've got no problem with these tests, but a bit more notice would be nice.
