To have fired my cancer dr.?
They never call to remind of appointments,
Then ask why you did not show up?
I called at 5AM day of appointment cause I was sick.
Office WAKES ME UP at 8 AM to reschedule. (Just being Lazy, Get It Done IMO)
I fail to call back, I forget, keep forgetting.
I think Dr office Should stay on my ass.
I called dr and they said "They call 1 time as a courtesy"
I told them it seems like they do not care.
and I would find a dr. that cares.

Yes, it really does. I understand. Even others who have been through it won't necessarily understand how it affects you because each experience is different. Be kind to yourself. It's OK to struggle with this. It's easy for people who can keep on top of things to tell you to keep on top of things, but if it's something you're struggling with then they don't understand and it doesn't mean that you're wrong when people tell you you should be 'better' at it. Cancer meds suck. Best of luck to you and I hope things get easier.

Google 'how to put a reminder in '.

I get it. I really do. But lets say the doctor/receptionist calls 2 days before your appointment and your memory is bad, you may still forget. If then send a text a day or 3 before you may still forget.

For imporatant appointments i set mine to remind me a week before and the day before and then on day. Usually a few hours before, that will give me enough time to get there.

Its not easy. Especially alone. But yiu need to sort something and do at least part ofvthe reminding.

If you really cant put it in your phone. Carry a diary and pen. Write appointments in straight away. Every day take 5 mins to look at the next week as a constant reminder to yourself.
