Three weeks ago my GP wrote to the local hospital asking for a scan on my ongoing back problems, with particular attention to both kidneys and bladder as he suspects the cancer may be back and may even have spread to the kidneys.
Yesterday I got a letter from the hospital enclosing the usual "What will happen when you attend" leaflet. They were inviting
MR Snoopy to present himself for a FEMALE PELVIC ULTRASOUND SCAN and cautioned that it may also be necessary for me to undergo TRANSVAGINAL EXAMINATION.
I called and introduced myself as the recipient of their correctly addressed letter and asked where they expected to find my FEMALE PELVIC area and for that matter how they planned to carry out the TRANSVAGINAL EXAMINATION.
No WHOOPS! No Sorry! Not even a giggle.
Just a blunt "That must be what your Doctor requested".
Like Miss D I then lost it completely and told the idiot that I may seem like a cunt and may even act like one but I certainly don't have one. I went on to add that I was present when the GP had written the letter requesting a scan on Bladder and Kidneys as well as lower spine area.
They are sending a revised letter.
Seems all wrong to me too!!!!!!
