The Urgent Care site I visited was in AL. I live in Chicago. Similar experience. Did the hospital that didn’t notify you take any responsibility for the stage you were in?
I know it's off the topic of this thread but can I ask how things have been since the segmentectomy. This looks like the road I will be going down soon. Any info about what to expect and any tips for preparing would be greatly appreciated. Funny thing is a mistake by my doctor may have saved my life. He kept ignoring the signs of a precancerous colon polyp I kept giving him. I eventually went to urgent care where they did a CT scan that caught the lung nodule. Had he just called for a colonoscopy they never would have caught the lung nodule. They later did a pet scan for the lung nodule that caught the large precancerous colon polyp. It's been a wild ride. 🙂
Just want to clarify that the hospital was in a different city and it was not Mayo that failed me, but the other Hospital. Mayo and their AWESOME Dr.’s saved my life!
