I hope my surgeon didn't make a mistake

[Amanda R 56]

I had complications after my surgery and require some testing tomorrow. I happened to look at the script for the ct scan, and on it says I had the sleeve done!! I clearly stated bypass. I went in thinking I had the bypass. Now I'm wondering what they did. The day of surgery, my doctor said sleeve and I said no I am a bypass patient. He said oh I see that now. I still have my other part of my stomach. I am really hoping this is an error on the script.

That's so scary. You have a hell of a lawsuit on your hands if he did. But hopefully whomever put printed the CT just wrote the wrong procedure. Definitely go back and find out!

I'm really starting to wonder if maybe that is why I can eat more.

It would make sense but I can't even fathom how a mistake like that happened!

Request your medical records if there's any question

But she is stating the scan is showing the remaining part of the stomach, if that is the case, then she had to have had bypass. They couldn't leave a non-functioning stomach that is not being fed with blood as it would rot then she would be in a world of hurt. This is just my thoughts.

Probably an error with the script.

Oh goodness...I sure hope it was an error. Request the medical record,and make sure of what procedure you had done.

So when I asked they took the script and changed it. I think during my appt later I will ask to see the ct

You need to request your medical records!!

You need to request you operative report that will state exactly what you had done

You need to request you operative report that will state exactly what you had done

Good idea.although they make for gruesome reading.

They said they made a mistake on the order, but I never got to see the CT.
