: I am so upset I could cry..I had an appt.for an emg today at the hospital..It was for 10:30a.m. well the Hospital called me at 9:50a.m.and said there was a big mistake that the doctors who do it are not even there today..So I rushed around for nothing!!!! I can't get one done now until Dec.23rd...I am pist to say the least..I have already been waiting for the test to be done for 3wks..So they gave me the # of the doctor's office to see if they can do it earlier then the 23rd well they don't have an appt.until jan...I am just fed up and want to get to the problem of my hands...I am a nursing assistant and I feel like I can't even lift the residents properly anymore...uggggg sorry for venting..

Hi Jen,
Don't apologize for venting, I think that's a big reason this board is here, for use to express our feelings, get them out and feel better! So sorry to hear about your dissapointment, frankly that stinks.
Try thinking about it another way, maybe today was just not the "right" day to have your test done, like if you had had it today the results wouldn't have been true or messed up or something. That maybe something (someone) greater than us has decided you should go on a diffent day. Sometimes when I think of things in those terms it makes the dissapointment and frustration easier to take. You never know there may be a different "plan" out there for you.
But good luck in the future and I wish you lots of luck scheduling your new appt SOON!
