Okay, well I brought Cameron with me to my appointment because he had an appointment soon after my treatment and the nurse chatted with him while I was being "zapped." They struck up a good conversation about our future plans in Colorado and she was mentioning this to me. I told her, funny thing you should mention us travelling to Colorado.....do you know that I plan to go and miss 6 treatments.....next week!? Of course, you already know the answer as do I. She looked a bit confused and then smiled. Huh?
I explained the situation and the inquiries that I have made over the past few days. She said that while she was not aware of the plan as long as the doctor gave the okay, there is nothing to be concerned about. I explained that I am beginning to question whether the doctor knows or not! Since I have not spoken with him about it directly, I am not confident with the wishy washy responses that I have received. I want to go but I don't want to worry about the consequences of missing those treatments.
She explained that many patients are doing the same thing because of planned vacations and travels that have been interrupted by life. I would imagine they are things like graduations, weddings.... She said don't worry about it and we will pick up where we left off when I return. I feel better but would feel much better if I could just speak to the illusive doctor! Why is he better protected than the President? At times I wonder about his actual existence but for the fact that I met with him once upon a time.
So, I will try to get the desired response tomorrow. Hey! No one can say that I haven't tried, right? As of now, I plan to go unless I am told by Dr. Z it will be detrimental to my treatment which at this point doesn't appear to be the case.
