stormdogAs I noted, I'm working from home today. I was on the phone with someone from work when there was a call on the other line. In the thought that it was the doctor's office, I called them after I finished.
I talked to the head nurse who had in fact tried to call me. She looked around while I was on the phone, but then couldn't find test results. After putting me on hold and looking for a time, she asked me to let her call back in a little while.
So she called back in five minutes or so to let me know that the reason she had really called was to confirm that I'd had the hep screen done because she hadn't seen it in the record. We confirmed that I really had been in to have the blood drawn for the test, and she told me that the test is uncommon enough that they do them together in batches on certain days. They'll run the test tomorrow and she'll call me then.
I am just boggled. I asked if I could go to work tomorrow and she said that she thought the doctor would have told me if he though I should be at home. So I'm going. They've been drowning without me, my team lead says, and I'm sure not giving up any more vacation days if I don't have to.
How do I feel? Eh; they asked me that at work too. Better. Very itchy, and my appetite isn't quite back yet, but at least I'm up and moving and not feeling like I'm going to lose my lunch continually. I'm down the better part of ten pounds since this all started too, though I don't recommend the method.
