This is what happens Janine, My doctor (Callery) wouldn't give me any pain medication past 10 days post op and because I was in critical pain I resorted to this... I see a pain doctor who has handled my care now.
I sent a PM to John Callery about this issue and I'm surprised that they have failed to moderate this thread and the other thread. It's ruining his board. Oh and yes I'm guilty by going on incognito. I was in a critical situation with my health and to be honest I would do it all over again, I was on here to save MY life not anyone else's. If anyone ever walks in my shoes again with the bad complications and can say they would do it any different oh well then I take my hat off to you.
I'm sorry to anyone reading my thread for those posts that aren't relating to my original thread.. please feel comfortable posting here.. I will still take PM's as they come in. Suzy

It's so easy to place blame on friends when the real blame lies with the doctor's who don't take care of there patients. Now it seams the problem has transferred to addiction and this will be a tough road to go down.
The surgery can cause so much good to some and so much damage to others. We all have alot to learn from this post. All of us need to be our own advocate. We all must listen to our bodies and make our doctors listen to us and if they don't listen.... find one that will.
Best of luck to you all...
