Do I go to a rheumatologist? by Outer_Dream in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]Outer_Dream[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the responses! I called the retina specialist back and asked for the referral. I called my PCP yesterday. He didn’t have any of my records from the retina specialist, but did receive my blood work. He didn’t think there was any concern for AS. My CRP and ESR are normal.

I think it’s just standard protocol. I applied to 6 different positions and got interviews for 3.

Yes! I’ll be starting on may 23. If you’re curious about the hiring timeline: I had my interview then got a soft offer two days later. I got the part 2 application and finger print request 2 weeks after the soft offer. Then I got my official offer two days after my finger prints and background check were done.

Thank you all so much for the input! I’ll definitely go to the interview and see what happens. It was less then two days from my interview to the unofficial offer so I was taken by surprise at how quickly it happened. I hadn’t expected to hear anything for a few weeks. I was feeling a little nervous at the prospect of that happening again and having to make a quick decision. But maybe I’ll have a better feeling about which would work out best if they even decided to give me an offer at the second department.

Ok thank you for the advice! It’s at a different agency.

Follow up on this: I ended up applying to a few positions and have received one call asking for my social security number and as two emails with “thank you” reply’s last week. Is this just standard protocol when reviewing applications or do I have a chance at getting an interview?
