DEAR MIKE IT IS PURE HELL TO WAIT ISN'T IT? IN THE WISENESS OF HMO'S IT CONTINUES TO BE THE WAITING GAME. THERE ARE SO MANY REASONS WHY YOUR TESTS COULD BE OUT OF WACK. I URGE YOU TO NOT READ A LOT RIGHT NOW ABOUT ELEVATED TESTS FOR LIVER. I URGE YOU TO ACQUIRE SECOND OPINIONS. IT IS HARD I AM SURE TO BE MALE AND NOT BE ABLE TO EXPRESS THE FEAR THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO KEEP AT BAY. YOU CAN BE A STRONG ADVOCATE FOR YOURSELF AND INFORM THE DR AND THE LAB PEOPLE THAT YOUR EMOTIONS ARE PLAYING HAVOC AND THAT YOU WOULD LIKE A QUICKER RESPONSE TIME. ENLIST AN ALLY IN THE DR OFFICE AND IN THE LAB. MEDICAL PEOPLE ARRE TIRED AND BURNED OUT UNFORTUNATELY AND A LOT OF US HAVE FORGOTTEN THE HUMAN ELEMENT ABOUT WHY WE DECIDED TO BE INVOLVED IN MEDICINE. IT IS NOT FUN TO FEEL OUT OF CONTROL. ANN D
