I am really scared this time!!!!!!

[Jazzy Baby]

Surgery is set for wednesday at 9:30 am, and I am going to be a nut case untill then. I have to let my Uro who forgot these wires in me, remove them, and I dont know if I trust him anymore. He told me today, that he did not see them, and I dont understand how if he put them in there, he missed them on the removal. He is red faced and shaking today when I saw him and he looked at my exrays. He dodged every question I had, and didnt even want to talk about the wires at all, he just kept talking about how I need to flex my pf muscles. Ok, like I didnt know that. Hello, I have now been diagnosed for 3+ years. I just didnt feel comfortable at all with him today. I could tell he wasnt comfortable either.
He says that he thinks that he can get them out with no complications, but I dont know what to believe from him anymore. I am really really scared this time. I dont think I have ever been more scared in my life. These wires are causing me to have pains down my legs, and up my back, so what are they touching to do that. And what does he have to cut into to get them out now. They have been in there attached to nothing. I am just going to stay busy until then, and they better drug me real well as soon as I walk in the door. Wish me luck, I am going to need it. I am so grateful for the support I have here, dont know what I would do without all of you.

Sending tons of prayers Jazzy biggrin.gif
If they don't use an x-ray machine when they remove the wires, they don't know if they are all out so shame on him for that one. When I had my revision done in Oct my uro told me that taking out the old wires was much more complicated than he thought it would be but they had been in there for 2 years. I do have MORE problems and pain now than I did before the revision. I don't know if it's from taking out the old stuff or putting in the new stuff....it's all so confusing and when girls come on to ask about the interstim and we share what we have been thru they end up attacking us????!!!! Right now I think this dr is more afraid of you than you should be of him so I'd be thinkin' that he's going to be as perfect as possible this time.

tons and tons of gentle hugs~

good luck! Can they give you a little valium to take before you even hit the hospital doors? If not, tell your anesthesia person you are really, really stressed and ask them to give you a little something before you even hit the OR doors-

Hang in there. You are probably doing the right thing having him take out the wires, since he knows the area etc. It sounds like he feels like a giagantic idiot (which he should)- but it also means he will be extra anal and careful when he goes in to get them out.

Your right, keep busy, try to relax, watch mindless movies and funny tv.

Good luck-

Jazzy,

This has been such a rough, rocky, uphill road for you! I pray that this suffering ends soon! You deserve the best care you can get. I hope you can resume a somewhat more comfortable life after this surgery. You will be in my heart and prayers as you have always been.
