OB/GYN VISIT

Jill from the Devils Lake Community Clinic called me Tuesday at work to set up an appointment to see the ob/gyn. The soonest appointments that Dr. Billings had available were May 2nd in Minot or May 20th in Devils Lake. I am not happy at all that I still have to wait a month to get in to see him, but what can I do about it. I told Jill that I would prefer to see him on May 20th in DL. She said that she would call and make the appointment and then call my home and leave a message on the answering machine with the time. Well, I got home from work and there was no message. So as I was getting ready to leave the house today, Jill called and said that Dr. Billings is totally booked until June in DL but he still had a 10:30 am appointment open in Minot. This made me really upset because that's a Monday and I don't have a sitter for Cassidy and I don't know my way around Minot so Darren would have to come with to drive me, besides, I think he wants to be there anyway. I booked the appointment and we are going to think about it, but if it comes down to it, I think we will just go to Minot on Sunday and spend the night and get up for the doctors appointment the next day and then come home. I really wish that I could see him sooner because my abdominal cramps have gotten worse. It feels like menstrual cramps or I am going to have diarrhea but I know that it's neither. I have taken ibuprophen for it, the meds just dull the pain and it comes back about 6 hours later. But at least I am not really sick so that's cool and I can survive until I see the ob/gyn.
