8. I saw a malpractice lawyer
And he needs to have an independent look-see. I understand that this is a process.
I have a small hernia that was discovered at the ultrasound that discovered the dead testicle.
I have an appointment Monday with a different general surgeon.
I am going to have to go back to work.
I live in my truck, and have been paying 500+ per week for a long stay motel.
If he doesn't release me, I will no longer be able to pay my bills AND the hotel.
So, homeless...
I have responded to 50 or more Craigslist ads.
No one wants a guy just out of surgery.
Depression is creeping in.
If I understand this correctly the patient has had two hernia surgeries to date. I gather this from the fact that the present surgeon is blaming the LON (loss of nut) on a previous hernia operation.
Then, after hernia op #2, I would guess that (after much weeping and gnashing of teeth), an ultrasound was ordered to find the source of the PIN (pain inthe nut). This confirmed the LON and also, according to the above, revealed another (smallish) hernia. Why, given the nature of the DUmmies isn't this one plainly stating the he/she/it has a third hernia?
Another thing, there isn't any sending out of bad
vibes to the surgeon which is another mystery. Intentional less drama which is hard to explain. What about disability benefits in lieu of a job search?
If the patient has an LON still residing in the old nut sac, wouldn't you think he would want that removed tout de sweet? Like today? But the patient is apparently just out of the OR since he /she/it sez no one will hire the new post op patient. Why then wasn't the busted nut removed then and why would the patient even be talking about work when another procedure is certainly imminent? I'm calling BS on that one.
