Angry "bird"!

I had my VSG on Nov. 23rd and now 4 days later, I realize that the program I am in is 100% worthless! I had my surgery in Tulsa Oklahoma..not Mexico..or a foreign country. I was promised the moon and back during the pre-surgery phases....but the truth is, I got NOTHING! The doctor at the bariatric clinic never showed up as he promised...he didn't even send anyone from his staff! I was there 3 full days! Come on...what is the deal with that?

 

He was "revising" the eating plan...and promised to have a plan put together for me before I had the surgery...yep...that ever happened either. My neighbor gave me her info and that is what I have doing.

 

My surgeon was great...I love and adore him! He answered all my questions..checked on me everyday, even on Thanksgiving! Even my pulmonologist came to see me everyday...including Thanksgiving day! But, again...where is the pathetic doctor (a old family friend of my parents) that sold me on the bariatric program? At home eating turkey and pumpkin pie, I am sure!

 

So...here I am mad (like the anrgy birds)...and there is nothing I can do! YET! Let me tell you...you can bank on the fact that when I get to the support meeting on Dec. 12th...he won't like what I say publicly! He deservse to be put in his place! And I am the girl to do it!

 

Go a head...enjoy your "bird" on thanksgiving doc.... but you will eat crow soon!!!

 

On a lighter note...I am doing well after surgery! I am struggling to get in my fluids..but everyday is getting better! :)

wow that sounds pissy sorry you had to deal with that. looks like you later had a better outcome though. I had my surgery on nov 21st going on my first week. I feel you on the fluids it is hard. I find sitting up straight helps or walk as i drink sounds weird but my problem is painful gas bubbles when I swallow. good luck with recovery.
