Scared, frustrated waiting for neurology appointment in California
Brain Tumor | Last Active: Nov 15 3:47pm | Replies (6)Comment receiving replies
Me again. Still being treated for Waldenstroms but brain scan showed meningimoma few weeks ago and small vessel disease. My oncologist said I need a least a serious of radiation for Ronaldo right temporal node and sent for neurologist referral. Referrals came I two days but any neurologist I called can’t get me in until at least February. Headaches and nausea getting bad don’t know if it’s the cancer or tumor. Called Dr office and they said they have no control of other practices. Called insurance company getting other referrals
But can’t guarantee appts. I don’t see oncologist until Dec I but have chemo on the 22. At my wits end.
Don’t know where tomatoes. Limited transportation options.
Optim and Humana Medicare advantage are my insurance and I live in Temecula
ca. any help out there!

@zeedee1 I would call and make an appointment with Dr Rudnick at cedar Sinai. That’s who I see.

I wish I could advise you, as I am in Texas. Just curious, are locations limited since you are on Medicare now. I ask that because the location I go to as of the first of this year no longer accepts Medicare and Medicaid patients. Many had to seek assistance elsewhere after being notified just before this change went into effect.
Prayers that you can get the help and assistance you want and need there in California.
