[QUOTE="Feeling Sad, post: 698056, member: 19245"] Hi. I went in Wednesday after school. I had waited 3 weeks because my doctor had sent the radiology order to a different hospotal, one nearer to me. But, they never called me even with the complaint of being dizzy and nauseous. After 2 orders...I found out and changed it to the best hospital, where I b ad my surgery. I was there, with my I.V. line in place for the second half with contrast. I am in the tube about 45 minutes. I was lying down on the table with my gown and she put foam around the sides if my neck. I asked, "Aren't you going to use the 'cage' for my face", as they always have in the past. She said, "No, you are having a spinal for your resection". I told her, "No, I had a craniotomy to remove a left convexity meningiioma between my frontal and parietal lobes in my brain". I pointed to my skull where I have screws and a titanium plate. She said, "No, the doctor ordered a spinal". With me lying there, she had to contact a doctor stat to change my order! Did I tell you how I bought the plot next to my brother's when I bought his in mid May. After about 7 calls and over 3 months later, I come to find out that they sold me back my brother's single plot. He is plot 1 and I was supposed to be 2. My I.D. card that I was supposed to give my loved ones in their time of bereavement had my brother's burial plot's code on the front. Ridiculous. I paid $17,000 for his very simple funeral, and my plot is $7,500. You would think that they could get it right... So, I am waiting for my results AND my proper burial plot...hopefully for the distant future. I go on the 31st to hear the results. Next time, I will have my youngest son drive me to emergency instead of waiting and being dizzy for 3 weeks. The technician told me this, as well. She was very upset about the mix up. I would have had to wait another few weeks to have it redone. I have not heard from my depressed son up North. He was very worried about my dizziness and I did not want to compound his own problems. So, I white lied and said that my brain checked out fine. He wanted to drive all the way down to help me. He is depressed enough. I wish that I hadn't told him about his schizophrenic brother being removed from the house with a restraining order. He would probably be doing much better right now. [/QUOTE]
