I will, reading up on it, it seems the most likely thing is stenosis. But the camera will confirm this. My wife you is a nurse is livid with what has happened.

Thoughts and prayers for you and your daughter.

@@L.T. I am all choked up and have tears in my eyes as I read your daughter's story. I am a RN, and what this AL done is MALPRACTICE. I can't believe the lawyers say you do not have a case. Are they basing it on the Xelerto alone, and because she didn't die?? I would sue the Dr. directly for malpractice and negligence. He took an oath to do no harm, and although sometimes there's no way to prevent things, her untreated internal bleeding was extremely negligent. Keep calling until you find someone who will listen to you!

I am 2 weeks out, and my recovery has been difficult, so I just can't imagine all of the other stuff she's been going through as well!

I will keep your daughter and you in my prayers..

Please, if you ever need to talk, don't hesitate to send me a message!

You are all so sweet!! She has the stent and feeding tube and they will be very hard to tolerate for the next 6 weeks but she has no choice. Jtraub12 I am new to this site and I don't know if I know how to send a private message. I will try and figure it out.

She still has the stent and is in a lot of pain. 3 or 4 more weeks with the stent. Hopefully the leak will heal this time. Thank you so much for checking on her????

Oh your so welcome. I have heard the stent is uncomfortable and painful. I wish I wasnt on the other side of the world (Australia) and I would take the kids to help out or cook meals or clean house or something! Im a complete stranger but I have her in my thoughts every day and you.

May everyones prayers and well wishes bind together with great medical attentiveness get her over the worst. It will happen!

Love sent

Hope your daughter has an uneventful recovery! I am in Alabama and was curious who her new doctor is?

It wouldn't be related but my original doctor disappeared in the middle of the night, rumor mill went nuts. I googled him and found a lawsuit was won against him in January 2016 - a rny patient of his called him with complications and he didn't tell them to go to the hospital, and they died. The lawsuit was for 3m.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
