If the radiology team was called in by your bari and they refusedto come in that is a huge no no :angry: . The ordering physcian needs to know that he was refused. That is a disregard for doctors orders. They should be shaking in their shoes cuz IF you would of had a serious complication (I am talking er surgery) and they did not come in that in itself is a lawsuit. You are correct to be calling the er admin and the hosp admin. You need to call both. Also, loop your bari into the process. If you get to actually "see" the admins I would bring in a picture of what the stomach looks like post vsg. I am sorry that human medicine is so stupid sometimes.:blink: I used to work on the human side and switched to the animal side.

I feel fine now that is has passed, I was feeling it quiet a bit on its journey to the sewer. The emotional scaes are still raw from the hospital experience.

Unfortunately many medical places have lost that sensativity toward the patient. Now it's all about quotas and getting money. Its really sad, I work as a nursing supervisor in a local clinic and always make time for my patients, I will listen and definately help them any way I can if it's by referral or by going an extra mile and just being there for them as they cry or tell me their story. . . it's really sad the care has been thrown to the wayside in many cases. I'm glad your better physically, but emotionally you'll be ok, I always say "what goes around, comes around" Those folks who did you wrong like that will one day be on the other side and get someone just like how they treated you. . . good luck. . know that we are here for you!

I'm really glad that everything has resolved okay as far as the physical problem. I can only hope that you get a satisfying resolution to the hospital/doctor/tech problem as well. I'm sorry that this happened to you, and sorrier that you had such a bad experience. Please let us know how it turns out.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
