I was to talk with a perinatologist by today; however, some one has dropped the meat in the sand. I was to have the referral sent over on thursday. I called the lady that I was to call and she said she didn't get the referral and that there is nothing wrong with their fax machine. The lady at Bristol Park said she would get back to me when she got it or hears back from my OB's office. They just closed when I called at the end of the day because I didn't hear anything from them.

Friday: I call in the morning and said that I didn't hear back from Bristol Park and they said they still did not get it. I call my doc's office and said that my doctor is aware of the situation and they have tried 4 times to send the referral, but no luck, and my doctor was not in the office on friday's. I call BP again... and ask for a supervisor. The lady recognized who it was and said that they got a new fax number and they would call me in an hour. They never called back, and I fell asleep - most likely from my blood sugar being too high...which would be more under control if I'd talked to the perinatologist. So hear we are looking at the weekend and having to wait until Monday to get any results.

Now I can't make the appointment until Tuesday - the referral better be ready/received so I can make it then. I tell ya.
