Dear Gerry,
If anyone shouldn't have to wait, it should be us! Waiting for a PCR is absolutely enough for a lifetime! Hope it is nothing and your gyne just wants info on the CML. Calling you on a Friday may not make it into the totally insensitive file, but I feel it belongs there. It is clearly lack of empathy when a doc cannot entertain a patient's anxiety over such a call. It is not very kind to leave this hang over the weekend. They really shouldn't do this unless they can be reached on a Sat. or Sun. (or evenings!). Of course, since I am usually civil (and maybe too much of a masochist), I do not call the emergency after hours number. However, I don't think it would be horrible to do this. Inconveniencing your doctor a little sure beats obsessing over a weekend. He or she should know better.
Thinking of you,
Teds
