[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have a neighbor if colleague or friend? They aren’t going to liable if you don’t get a colonoscopy. Or, try the hired route like pp suggested. Try your local listserv and maybe you offer a fee to a college student. Call the doctor and see if Ubers count - usually not because they want to see your escort. Might also try a driver, like an airport driver. [/quote]

I suspect OP has neighbors, colleagues and friends, but it's a big ask if you aren't close. I do it for close friends and family. I had a spouse have major complications (yes, rare, but it happens) and I would do anything for him, but knowing there is always the chance I cannot do that for someone I am not close to. I hadf to be aggressive getting in touch with doctor, insisting on ER, etc and thank goodness I was. I was up all night to advocate. OP I would spend the money to hire an aide to drive you and pay the person to stick around for a few hours hust in case. You will know within a short period if all is well and you can send the person home. It's worth taking a loss on the money to have peace of mind.[/quote]
