So, I called my GP's office back.
I didn't get anything like an apology. I got "we left a message" and, when I said I hadn't gotten it, only "If you say so" followed, after a moment, by "so what do you want?" I had to explain that I still need to see the doctor, and then sat on hold for what felt like a long time.
Rather than accept 10:30 this coming Friday--which would probably mean noon or so, and eat most of a workday--I'm going back next Monday at 4, so I can get in most of a day at work.
They are faxing a new physical therapy referral over, since I have PT tomorrow--or said they would, which isn't the same thing but is the best I can do for the moment.
I'm going to replay the recorded message when I get home, to see if I misunderstood it. If not, I'm going to bring this up with Dr. Kump when I see her.
Things for the next visit: follow-up on lungs; check on the PT referral; skin rash Rx (which I forgot to pick up last time); eye doctor referral (which should have been mailed to me).
