Vascular Surgeon Callback

Still waiting…

This is the second time I’ve been waiting for a callback. I got an ultrasound on my fistula last week and the surgeon was supposed to review it and let me know if there’s anything he can do to fix my fistula. Since then, my dialysis nurse was able to stick me successfully on Thursday, and got one in Saturday.

Interestingly, the same surgeon put in my PD catheter. The surgery was fine and the wound healed great but I think the placement was so so inside the abdomen so I didn’t drain well when lying down on my back. The PD nurse said the same vascular surgeon did good work, but is kind of an arrogant prick.

Sigh. I was going to call the surgeon’s office today but got busy with work. When I finally looked at the clock, it was past 4:30 pm. I’m more of a procrastinator so I usually wait a few days before calling but I know the dialysis nurse will bother me about it tomorrow.
