Hi just finished reading the link provided. First yes a timeframe of the end of the year meaning today. I saw this doc had to go pick up the labs by self as results not sent took a week to get them. Well when picked them up told call by Monday to schedule the infusion this was a Friday. And this was last Friday. Nothing signed. No instructions just call schedule the infusion. Told might get flu like illness for three days. Then said when labs in call and we meaning doc and me would discuss the results. No I had to drive there and tackle the RN who reluctantly supplied me with the numbers for the labs and question her on her feelings of the injection. Have the letter here will copy verbatum. "Dear Mrs B. After reviewing your recent conversations with Bridget reguarding the risks and benefits of Reclast, it is clear that you do not feel comfortable using that medication. At this point our office will not schedule you to have any Reclast infusion. Additionally I would suggest that you seek another opinion from a rheumatologist or endocrinologist reguarding the appropriate treatment of your osteoporosis. We will cancel your followup visit. If you would like the names of appropriate physicians in our region, do not hesitate to contact our office. At this point we will no longer participate in your care. Sincerly docs name . With certified letter typed at the top. Phillipa So what would you do? Seriously? Thanks
