Guest guest Posted November 10, 2001 Report Share Posted November 10, 2001 huh? We live in an area now that is twice as much. I don't think a 27 minute drive east will change anything. If that is what you meant, not sure. aW Re: Nightmare! a: From what I have heard on the news ect. the cost of living there is about double to NC.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 Oh, !! I can not believe how AWFUL that must have been!! I just had a manometry a couple of months ago, and had the same problem with the lady not being able to pass the tube into my stomach. The test took forever, and when it was finally done, I cried. She hugged me and said " I wouldn't wish this damned disease on anyone. " How on earth could that little tube have broken your nasal bone? Was she being too rough because she was frustrated? I am so sorry to hear that you had to have such a horrible time today. Did you at least have family with you at the time? I hope you are O.K. now. At least they are finally going to send you somewhere where people are more familiar with, and more equipped to handle your needs. Let us know how you are doing.

Guest guest Posted July 31, 2002 Report Share Posted July 31, 2002 , You are right, that is a nightmare. I can not believe that it takes something like this to get them to refer you. I had the same thing happen to me where they could not get the tube down, but they only tried twice. The person doing the test was a doctor, not a tech. He went back and told my doctor the only way he could do it was if the tube was placed by the scope. They rescheduled the whole thing, and it took all day. They placed the tube through the scope but had to wait for the drugs to wear off before they could do the silly manometry! The test only took about 5 minutes once they got the thing in the right place. I know the little tech tried her best, but I would be throwing a screaming fit. I would be calling my docs, threatening everything I could. I have said this before, the only way you get the treatment you need is to fight for it!
