I too hope you're going after the doc and the hospital. The actual malpractice is more than reason enough, but the threats they made toward you REALLY take the cake.

Now if you're waiting a little while to make sure you don't have to go right back in for complications, that I can see. But they really need to be held accountable for that mistake and the attempt to silence you.

when they succeed in silencing patients like that, it leads to a complacency which will ultimately end in someone dying for their carelessness, if not more than one person.

If you let them slide, you will be partly to blame for any deaths that result. Not to be harsh, but if you won't do it for yourself, do it for the future victims of their incompetence, complacency, criminal conspiracy to cover up malpractice, etc....

It's not just your right, it's your duty to nail them for that shit.

Well we already talked to a lawyer and he said the same thing that me, my mum, and the other people said at the beginning. There is a piece of paper they get you to sign, no because of to many sue happy people, that pretty much says accidents happen. And I can see if I had more complication's then yea I would sue big time, but I'm doing great. Probably go back to work sooner than what we thought. It was an accident, I am different than most people are and my duct,vain, are totally different than most.
I had thought that he had cut the duct all the way, but come to find out he didn't he only nicked it. Most doctors would have been bum heads about it but he is being a very good doctor. I would go back to him again if I had to. He is the best in his field, and it just happen that I was the one that had to be different lol. But everything is going great. I go back to him today to get my staples out. My scar is barely going to be show. Only ones that are going to be showing to bad are the staples part.

As far as being allergic to pain meds, did you know you were allergic to them before hand? You were in that car accident a couple of years ago and you were in the hospital. Did they give you different meds because you would have known then if you were allergic or not. And if they gave you the same stuff then you have a lovely little settlement coming to you. Unless this is one of those allergies you mysteriously develop. I know that happens to some people. One day they aren't allergic to anything and the next day BAM they are allergic to everything, like cigarette smoke! That really sucks.

Glad you are feeling better! Take care of yourself!

It was different ones. Every single pain med I can't take now. They all though when I had my accident they gave me morphine and I wasn't allergic to it, but this time yea I was. Lol all though I saw the weirdest pink hippo. That thing was tripping me out big time.
But the surgery was going great until he nicked that other duct.

Great to hear from you Razz

It's good you are recovering so well. My opinon, for what it's worth...If he is the best in his field then he wouldn't have made a mistake like that. Doctors go to school for such a long period of time, go through residency, training and what not to prevent that kind of mistake. Not to mention we, as patients, pay the doctors SO much money to not make mistakes. Yes, it happens. Doesn't mean they should be let off for it. This is your BODY your LIFE! It's not a matter of OPPS, I just filed the paper work under M instead of N.

Another thing, if your lawyer said that...I'd talk to a different one.

Your body cannot possibly be SO different that he didn't recognize ducts from...what ever, geese, I guess?

Like I said, this is such a common surgery. A mistake like that shouldnt' be made, difference in your organs or not...

You are lucky, though. He could have really fucked you up.

Morphin is a hallucinogenic? I would't know...Heh...Who here is an expert on Morphin? Come on, I know SOMEONE here is!!

Fairy_Tale_Pixie · 05-07-2008, 12:46 PM

Lol!! I tell you cause girl I was talking out of my head and seeing stuff that wasn't there. Lol who would have thought a pink hippo!!! LOL!! Those things are scary enough as is, lol. Every time I would think something I would say it. Poor Tim, Lol, I was bossing that poor boy around. I told him to get up from there come over on this side of the room and watch the tellie. Lol and I think I called one of the nurses a bitch. Lol. Course I'm going on by what people wa elling me, because I can't remember the first 3 days in hospital. Lol

ssspert · 05-07-2008, 12:51 PM

I'm no expert by anymeans...Good stuff, was only prescribed a few times when I was a mere lad.

Morphine - a white, bitter, crystalline alkaloid, C17H19NO3·H2O, the most important narcotic and addictive principle of opium, obtained by extraction and crystallization and used chiefly in medicine as a pain reliever and sedative.

1828, from Fr. morphine or Ger. Morphin (1816), name coined in allusion to L. Morpheus, Ovid's name for the god of dreams, son of Sleep, lit. "the maker of shapes," from Gk. morphe "form, shape, beauty, outward appearance," perhaps from PIE *merph-, possible Gk. root meaning "form," of unknown origin. So called because of the drug's sleep-inducing properties.

I was on Morphin in 96. I don't REMEMBER hallucinating. I do remember that it felt like lead was being pumped through my veins. I talked a lot. But then I talk a lot when I'm sleep and when I'm drunk. And I did sleep a lot.

ambergirl · 05-07-2008, 10:39 PM

I'm allergic to morphine so it burned going in and I got dizzy and broke out in a rash. Not fun at all.

Fairy_Tale_Pixie · 05-08-2008, 08:36 AM

I slept a lot but when I woke up I got sick. Even with that pump thing I didn't take it much. I refused un-less I was hurting to bad.
