1. I was supposed to have a surgery Jan 6th and it was rescheduled to January 28th

Minor procedure that doesn’t require a hospital stay overnight.

2. I did last year - left carotid artery surgery

Scheduled 3 different times. Ended up having it in what ended up being peak covid.

3. I had mine bumped up, but my surgeon is moving his practice to a nearby town. I was told

March because he was being restricted in how many he could schedule. Then he got the go ahead to do more and I got in before Christmas to have my knee replaced. That was the 15th.

I had my right hip done in June. That I had delayed until after I was vaccinated, but it looked like they would have cancelled it if I hadn't first. That was originally supposed to have been last Jan 18.

4. Do veterinarian appointments count?

My cat's dental surgery was scheduled 12/28 and had to be postponed because staff had COVID.

5. I was supposed to have outpatient gynecological surgery on Friday

But I had to reschedule due to being sick. I’m waiting on my Covid test results(was scheduled before I got sick).

6. I can't get an echocardiogram for a aortic heart murmur which COVID gifted me with

when I had it last year before vaccines came out according to my doctors...only Covid patients are treated at our hospital right now.
