Doberdoo what northwestern Hospital is Your doctor with? I see dr Zinn who is part of the northwestern Medicine bronchiectasis program. I would see her in lake forest or Glenview. I cannot drive to downtown so I see her- the system works unfortunately this way but her nurse emails me back the same day or I know she screens the emails and probably there is a code how she does it because the doctor if there is a need emails me back. Never calls though. If I am desperate I usually find an opening to see her in a day or two. I also, I know crazy, but I schedule one or two appointments ahead of time just in case and cancel if not needed. Oh and when I had any test I email that I have done it with the date.

Agree with your statements and do very much the same when wanting to see the doctor. Spot on. As we know, all require our being able to handle it all ourselves, mentally, physically, time wise etc. and thank goodness for you and I for now we can do it all for ourselves.
I often wonder how it will be when I can't do it for myself as a single person or for others who have no children or children close by, no family left on this earth and all friends are incapable to help because of their own age and health problems. Lucky are the ones who find and can hire help that take a sincere interest in helping. Preparation is the key and hope we all have the keys to do it when needed. May we all be able to, and find our way to, working our way through each and every challenge that life brings to us.
