@tonto999, Would you be surprised to know that patience is going to be your best friend? In the medical scheduling, even in the best of times, the waiting is one of the big headaches that we have to endure. I used to tell myself that a longer wait for an appointment or procedure meant that this was not an emergency!
I hope that you hear something soon. Will they call you. or will you make a follow-up call?

Hello Rosemary. I know all about patience when it comes to scheduling. I did get a call from my doctor today. She passed on my lab results to a gastro doctor who presented this comment:
I suggest an AMA and a CT of the abdomen with contrast if her creatinine allows. She could have PBC (Primary Biliary Cholangitis). An elevated alkaline phosphatase could also represent occupied liver.
I have a CT scan scheduled for Sept 10th. This time is it further out because I will be out of town Aug 25-Sep 5. I'll hang in there and chat again when I find out anything more.
