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.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
