But they could just do an X-ray of that. I would have thought other procedures such as tissue injuries would be what benefits from a procedure like this which would otherwise require an expensive follow-up

They could... But for over a year I've been waiting :/

Sounds like someone forgot to put in your paper work. I’d follow it up if I were you.

Paper work is the problem, my doctor's office sucks. My actual doctor is great. Literally the best experience with a doctor we've ever had, but the office is terrible. Still waiting on an ultrasound of my gallbladder for 8 months, waiting on testosterone shots for low t for 1.5 years, plus other shit, and that's just me. My mom had to wait 3 months for colostomy supplies because they couldn't manage to fax the prescription correctly. She had to wash out and reuse ostomy bags using skin safe glue and tape to stick them on. But they're the only ones around here. It's a big corp that bought out all the other practices that didn't shut down, so they are literally the only PCP in the area. Even the urgent care is owned by the same people. No matter which office you go to it's all the same problems. :/ but at least our doctor is good. Lol.
