It is so good to have you here. We have really enjoyed knowing Christy and look forward to hearing from you, too.
I used to brag how fast my results from tests always came back. In most cases, I had the scans or tests done in the early morning and scheduled my doctor appointments for 11 am. It has worked great for about a year now.
I had a chest x-ray last Wednesday and still can't get the results. I have been on the edge of my seat for 8 days now. I finally paged the head of the radiology department and she had everything taken care of...three hours ago. You would think they would just call me. That's what I get for bragging!
