Daniel: My ENT would not discuss my results over the phone and told me from the get-go that all results had to be discussed in person in case of bad news. It was also at least 1 week to 10 days before he got test results, so the waiting game is familiar and not pleasant. However, you have to live with it I suppose. I don't think its ever a good idea to get pissed at or piss off your health care people, but I will probably never see my ENT guy again as all of my follow up will be with the chemo/rad/surgery team. So if you don't have the ENT in your future, I wouldn't worry about it. But, I don't think they should have been angry over you cancelling the appointment as they had told you to go to another doctor. That may be a way to open the subject to smooth things over if you choose to, ie: asking them if there was a problem as you sensed they were angry when you cancelled ... etc. If you want.

I don't know how ed got such fast results. Same day? Maybe were just under-represented down here in Miami on the dogs tail (geographically) and our labs have too much business to get same day info like that. I'm jealous.
