Yes, I Am The Cutest
We took her to the regular doc today at the suggestion of the frontdesk receptionist. Yesterday we called the office to schedule her 18-month checkup. Katy's mom told the receptionist that it has been three weeks and the ENT hasn't called to make an appointment. The receptionist felt that Katy ought to have a follow-up with the regular doc until she is seen by the ENT. So we did.
The doc was surprised to see us. We told him what happened and he was annoyed that the ENT hasn't called yet. After he made sure that the referral has gone through, he gave us the number to call to make an appointment.
Both of Katy's ears are bad, by the way. And we do notice a marked decrease in her hearing. Sudden noises do not get Katy's attention. It is worrisome. When we told one of our coworkers that Katy didn't sleep well at night when it was raining, she thought it might be the change in the air pressure that caused discomfort in her ears. That probably makes more sense than loud noises.
Anyway, we called the ENT to schedule an appointment and were told to call back Friday because the docs are all booked. Supposedly, new openings will be available on Friday. We will just see what happens then. The worst case scenario is we finally get to see the ENT in a month and then wait for months for the surgery, which can happen in summer (and Katy may get cleared up by then). In the meantime, we just have to remind ourselves to have enough patience to deal with Katy's crying in the middle of the night.
