*Update* The lab messed up my bloodwork

So, my Dr's nurse told me on Monday morning that they were retesting my blood and she would call me with the glucose test results. I never heard from her, so I called Tuesday morning and was told someone would call me back. No one called me back, so I just called again and the nurse said that they sent over a paper that said they couldn't retest the blood and that they would call me to let me know I had to redo it. Then she was shocked when I told her they never called me. I was like "nice, so they totally messed up my test the first time, and then were supposed to call me and never did and no one from your office called me like they said they would either." The poor lady on the phone was like "I know, they dropped the ball big time, I'm so sorry, Happy Thanksgiving." UGH! So, now I have to go redo this awful test next week when I'm super busy at work. I think the worst part about it for me is the fasting - I'm a wake up and eat breakfast kind of girl. And I really hate when my time gets wasted because of other people not doing their jobs properly. Vent over.

  • that sucks, i'm so sorry :(
  • Being on the administration side of health care that makes me cringe to hear that. I would be tempted to find out who the director of the lab is (they probably have a staff directory on their website) and tell them what happened. But that's just because of my position at our hospital-I'd want to know if it were our lab messing stuff up (and providing terrible customer service).

  • Ugh - so you have to drink that terrible drink again!!  They shouldn't charge you or your insurance for it since it was their error!

    Yep - another wonderful drink for me *gag*

    I'm going to make a point of reminding them when I get there of what happened and I'm going to tell them that they better not charge me for this second visit. I'm so irritated! My Dr. said I should make them buy me lunch. haha

    That's a good idea! Also, when I made my appt. online, it asked me if I wanted to complete a survey after my appt and I said yes. I plan on explaining the situation in my survery and telling them how wonderful they are. (these pregnancy hormones aren't helping my anger either)

  • That stinks. On the bright side, if you do turn out to have GD at least you won't find out until after Thanksgiving and you can eat whatever you want. : )
