alright so i went in to get my surgery at 730 today surgery was scheduled for 830. we didnt get in until noon. my surgery ended at 130.


alright this is not bad at least im done right. well the doctor decided to start another surgery before seeing me off. he thought it would be over at 330 and then check my x rays and let me go. well his sugery went way longer than expected and we didnt get seen til 7 that night.

he checked my charts uhhhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhhhh!!!! he screwed up and the sugery did not work the bone had moved right back to where it was before the surgery. he wants me back in bright and early tomorrow morning to do it all over again. I am so pissed cause this was supposed to work. he told me and everyone in that hospital told me it was going to work and science failed.

i am tired of all this i would rather he heal naturally and not have tons of holes drilled in my bones to maybe not have any pain later in life. and he said its still possible that ill have pain either way.

well he isnt charging me at all for this operation so its going to be free both of them. but i just dont want to do it again. hell i questioned how that pin was going to anchor the bone and he said by drilling into another bone. I knew right off the bat thats not going to work and sure enough it didnt.

doesnt help to much when you know more than the doctor.

Man that sucks.

I don't really like going to the doctor for a shot.

Can't stand going to the Dr. for a cast on a simple fracture.

Get queezy at the thought of surgery, much less two days in a row.

Hope it goes well man.

I know how you feel about the wait. I just had a screw put in my wrist 3 weeks back now. My show was 1030 and surgery at noon and finnaly got in at 330. The crap of it is i wouldnt of even seen my doc before hans if they didnt screw up the paitents right to know paperwork, it said i needed a bone graft from my hip when i didnt. Anyway the surgery only ended up taking 20min, i was put under and back up in an hour. The leason of that is dont fight so drunk that you cant throw a punch right anymore.

What did you have done? It sounds a lot like when I broke my hand and had 3 pins put in it.

Sometimes i hate going to the DR. They sometimes want unneccessary tests and visits and you gotta pay the copay each time and they get a chunk.

No wonder why they all make $100K+/year...they just rape insurance companies for any and all tests or precedures they can put their name on and get a cut of

Glad it worked this time buddy!

Cant wait to see the KB on your sweet ride
Come on over and let me drive it, you can be the chase car in my Termi

Fortunatly I have never had surgery. I had a liver biopsy and that was enough for me. The doctors want to fuse two of my vertabre together for a bad disc I have. I wouldnt throw it out anymore but I will always have a dull ache. I said "pass, now refill my pain meds"

Then he would ask: "are you a surgeon?" "No, but i did stay at a holiday inn express last night."
