@pinkfish66, I'm so sorry to hear about your trials and tribulations in trying to advocate for your care. I think you are doing the right thing with contacting the ombudsman. Please contact them again and tell them what happened yesterday. You need medical attention. Can you reschedule your appointment with the oncologist? Or ask the ombudsman to mediate with another oncologist?
Staging requires different pieces of information. It is common that staging is not assigned until after surgery or a biopsy, along with other imaging studies and tests.

Yes I've had the tests vaginally but no blood work or anything else. I also am agoraphobic and she knows how hard it is for me to trust let alone leaving the house to go to her office. I woke up today having blood pressure of 171/121! This is all getting too real and frightening!! Thanks for your attention to my story ! It actually feels like somebody cares. I wish people around me were more aggressive in helping me . I really feel alone and like something bad , like a heart attack, will happen before I get this oncologist to do her job! Thanks for letting me vent ,AGAIN!
