I woke up from my gastric bypass unable to feel my left leg he told me it was from positioning on the table but it turned out some how a disc in my back got messed up really bad either from laying on the hard operating table or from getting moved from table to table. Every time I called him to get advice about my leg he would talk angry to me saying it has nothing to do with him or the gastric bypass surgery. I understand its not his fault but some advice would of been great instead of attitude.

If I need him for something again I'm probably going to see if another hospital will take me.

I've gone through hell since my gastric bypass surgery and it kills me to say that.

Something smells fishy here. A surgeon does not just deal with what ever they are operating on. They should be looking at the patient as a whole.

I would suggest you speak to legal counsel on this. It may be a hospital issue. Not that you would sue, but get your ducks in a row.

My mom has had 3 failed back surgeries and did not act quickly enough on surgeon negligence. When she finally obtained her medical records from the first surgeon his records were so far off it was funny. For example they listed my mom as a non-smoker - and trust me she has smoked a pack a day for many many years.

I don't think I would have a case I've had back problems for 6 years extreme pain but never any numbness I had emergency surgery on the disc they said was the problem since then most of the pain is gone but numbness is still there. The neuro surgeon said it could take a while for the numbness to go away.

My mom did not think she had a case either. Thats why I said just talk to someone. My attorneys will give you a free consolation. It never hurts anyone to talk.

There are meds that reduce your inflammation with being an anti inflammatory. Like tramadol - it would be worth the research. Also there is voltran gel.

do not take tramadol!! my surgeon told me that it goes travelling straight to yoyr bowels and causes them to sleep etc. I had been prescribed them from my family Doctor and was getting really ill on them.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
