Even though I was seen at CCC, Moffitt in Tampa, I had one "lead" doctor which was my RO and everything had to flow through him. He was the one, and still is, that set all my appts so maybe this is what you are up against.

Again I'm not a doctor but I don't see a big concern physically about waiting until the 8th but you do need to try and calm down as that won't help anything.
