Should i ask my doctor? |
Ok to make a long story short... in middle of march I had a Nuclear Medicine Scan to check the function of my gallbladder. It showed it was functioning at 40% -- so we met with a surgeon and booked surgery to have it removed. Late march I had my gallbladder removed. The next week I ended up being diagnosed with Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Anyway, so I babysit for a radiologist and he was taking me home one day and we were talking about surgery and the NMS (nuclear medicine scan) and he asked what my gallbladder was functioning at and I said "they told me it 40% so thats why they removed it". Then he said "i read those scans everyday and about 30% is normal". So i told my parents but then we were busy and never really got around to getting back to my surgeon. Should I go see him or e-mail him. It just bothers me that he did the surgery when my gallbladder was fine. Thanks :) Sounds like malpractice to me. You don't need a doctor, you need a lawyer. You really shouldnt bother your doctor with somthing thats not that important but if its really bugging you that much go ahead and do it. If what you say is true, that is malpractice. What you should do first is find out what normal gallbladder functioning is. Ask a third neutral physician. Don't talk to the dr. Call a lawyer. |
