He said he put his phone down in his office and never went back to his office. I do not have problem with that. I have a problem with the fact that his nurse never even called me back. I do not have any pain when trying to flush it. I just have pain when trying to get, sit down, lay down, or anytime we have to use those darn stomach muscles. Anyway the Dr. told me to call him back over the weekend if it gets worse or I start running a fever. He also said that when I come back to town on Tuesday for my trial run with radiation he will come over and check it out and make sure nothing is wrong. Will also work with me on how to properly care for the darn thing, since the dietitian will not give me the time of day.
