Dr Dr Stupid

 

i am glad you have never had anyone with a lap band before come into your office. I know i have a UTI i glad that you could not even do a stupid dip stuck test to show that i have a UTI. I am dizzy and vomiting That would mean that i am probley dehiraded. I am glad you think it funny to precribe medison i can not take with my band. I do not were a med alret bracelt that said no NIsads for no reson so telling me to take advill was stupid, Teling me to wait for monday to talk to my PCP is even more stupid. I glad you do not belive in the lap band thanks for telling me that over and over but I wonder were you got you MD if you can not even rightly treat a simple UTI right. Next time i save my self the money and just wait till monday since thats what i will have to do anyways

 

 

Singed a person who belives in her band becuse she lost 40 lbs by useing it and yes it was worth it. What was not worth it was seeing you becuse your an stupid person who can't even treat a simple UTI/ Kideny infection right

I know what you mean! I ended up in the ER twice with a bowel infection and was sent home both times without proper testing (beyond telling me I had an infection) and without antibiotics. They simply managed my pain and were amazed at how much I had lost with the band. My surgeon operates out of that hospital and was furious the next day when I saw him on an emergency appointment and he learned what they HADN'T done for me.

Surely when a patient presents with something that may be a complication of a band, they should at least phone the surgeon for advice.

As for failing to treat a diagnosed infection, that is just plain wrong.
