Hold the presses . . .

Let’s see now. I made four phone calls and sent two faxes to my NYC doctor last Thursday and Friday trying to get a comment out of him regarding this latest situation. Family members call me multiple times a day to see if I’ve heard from him. He’s a busy man. There’s a limit to how many patients he can deal with, particularly those 3,000 miles away. But I’m concerned. He’ll be basing his comments off of the echocardiogram report, a document that apparently misstates the location of the tumor, and may also misstate the size. Exactly how much pressure should I put on this man to participate in a “garbage in, garbage out” exercise?
