The Health History doc is useful. Thank you for putting it up there for us, hansej.

In February I told our new doctor 'no blood' info and he said didn't matter. He would never be doing surgery for me. Then I repeated it the next time to the PA...no problem, it wouldn't concern her. Then I told the cardiologist...didn't matter to him, although referring me for an angiogram, because he wouldn't be doing the procedure. I asked the receptionist when she called to schedule me for pre-op and the angiogram. No problem, she said. Finally, pre-op day I saw the doctor doing the angiogram and once more mentioned my stand on blood. Boy, did he backpeddle. No way did he want to touch me. Nope. I got that far up the chain before it became an issue and halted everything. Now I am starting back at the beginning. I told everyone I dealt with...how in the world do we make sure they are listening so the referral process is directed towards the proper specialist! ! ????
