I had a horrible surgery and i believe there is malpractice involved. Wanted to see if anyone has contacted an attorney and if they were successful?? And if possible get a few leads. Im 6months post op w my bypass and still not up to par. After a 42 day hospital stay and 2 surgerys later and now 6 ER visits i have no idea where to start. If im not physically sick im mentally and emotionally broke down from dealing w this surgery that came so close to killing me. Just lost :(

Not to be the bearer of bad news, but keep in mind that it is not malpractice to make a mistake. The standard for malpractice is did they make a mistake that a reasonable physician should not have made. Check with a local attorney, but unfortunately mistakes do happen and I am so sorry to hear that you are not well.

It is not ok for you to suffer because of a mistake. It took me a long time to find and attorney because my surgery was on an Army base. After my surgery I spent months in icu, lost my entire stomach, remnant , pouch and part of my intestines. I've had 27 surgeries and now have to get my nutrition and calories through a central line. Well I won my lawsuit. If you aren't comfortable with your outcome search until you find and attorney. Keep track of details dates and medical records. You will need it

      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! 😞
