Six weeks must be zapping your patience and your energy as it would do to me. Can you believe that when I was supposed to be scheduled for my evauation (not at Mayo) I was told to expect a call abour an appointment in 4 - 6 weeks. But it didn't happen so I called the transplant department there and heard an "Oops". The scheduler had been replaced and the request for my evaluation appointment was misplaced! I received thr replacement schedule really soon after that! It did not affect my care, but it shows that things can happen - and - can be addressed with satisfaction.
Artsy, I am guessing that when you were told that you would be contacted about when to come back, that they didn't suggest how long it would take until you heard from them.
So, here's are some things that I would consider doing if this was happening to me: (in any order)
- Check your email and phone messages to be sure a correspondence isn't in the spam or unknown file section of your phone or email.
- Call and inquire about the progress in getting a schedule - Do you have the phone number of the doctor that you previously saw there?
- Do you have a Mayo Clinic Patient number assigned to you? Log into the Mayo Clinic Patient Portal and see if there is any progress or communication there.
I hope you learn something.
