Mood- snarly
Health- gross


Well, I found out why they could not tell me at VCU when my EGD (upper endoscope) and small bowel follow through were scheduled and that would be because the dang things were scheduled for September 6 and no one ever bothered to tell me so I missed them!!!

This is just another "mistake" that has happened at VCU concerning things (past mistakes- them canceling an appointment and never telling me meaning a 180 mile round trip for nothing, them losing my only copy of my gastric emptying scan after promising to return it to me for over three months and never even loading it to the system as they said they would, putting a medication on my medical file that I have never taken that could have had serious repercussions if I ever passed out in their presence with my heart condition, rescheduling appointments and never bothering to call me to tell me <so I would have made another 180 mile round trip for no reason> and the new one, scheduling some important tests and despite my repeated calls NEVER TELLING ME when they were until A MONTH AFTER they were to be done!!!!!) which all means that even thought I desperately need medical treatment and the only option I have available to me due to my lack of insurance is VCU Health Systems I have two choices.

Stop going there and get no treatment at all...

Try to keep going and wait until one of their mistakes finally KILLS me...

An isolated mistake I can understand... but considering that they have actually made more mistakes <scheduling, notifications, medicine reporting errors, etc) than I have actually been there is more than just unacceptable!
