I empathize. I had to cancel an appointment today due to asthmatic flare & 3:00 a.m. onset of sciatica. I wrote a "mychart" message to the doctor whom I have gone to for years and asked him to be please be gracious and drop the $100 fee for a days notice cancellation as there was no way i could come in today. I feel like he will understand. Bless you. It's hard when you don't know from one day to the next how you will feel. I am sorry it is so hard for you not to make your appointments. God Bless You!

@covidstinks2023 bless you too.
We are definitely “spoonies” and it’s guessing game most days.
I’ve told new providers up front that they cannot count on me showing up every single time I am scheduled. Some are very nice especially when I explain why. Then again..,

People who have made a connection with me are easily flexible and willing to wave their fee.
Thanks for your input!
