Re: ready for cruising but may have to have surgery
I had a 12-18 inch section removed a few years ago. Diverticulitus was the problem...cant remember the exact name they called it. It took about 6 months for the Docs(they dont care about you) to figure out what my probs were. I was in the hosp 2 times....first week was on heavy IV antibotics to treat my undiagnosed severe infection. Second time was after they figured the prob out...Nursing care and some of the Docs were pretty bad. If you can always try to have someone family with you to make sure that your care is taken care of. I had more than several bad experiences...one time one of the nurses drew my pain meds...forgot to give them to me...took my syringe of meds home with her in her pocket....realized her mistake....came back and gave me the meds without checking with anyone before doing it. Really scarry crap. Luckily i didnt have to have a colostimny bag so that was one less trip back to the hosp(of death) and one less surgery.
I healed pretty well but like i said i had a lot of bad experiences. I had a 7-8" Down my stomach that was kinda uncomfortable for a while. Like i said.....ALWAYS try to have someone family who cares about you with you....because the Docs and Nurses Dont care...they have their own probs and familys that they care about. Question everyone and everything.
Im not sure if this was info you wanted to hear but I think you should know some of the things that went bad with me.
Let me know if you want to hear any more of my experience(more bad stuff/some good)
Good luck
Mark
