I am unsure where I stand with my pending surgery Aug 24, 2009. I had my appendix removed 6 weeks ago. I have been on 4 different antibiotics. I've been to the hospital 2 times. My incision is still 6cm deep. A home health care nurse comes daily to drain,clean and bandage the incision. I still continue to run a low grade temp. Every time I've gone to the surgeon he has been rude and quick. Telling me I'll be alright take some advil. He sang a different song today because I brought my mother with me. I am 21 and holding(about 15more years)  and still needed my mother. He gave me meds, tests, and time off until after blood work and another CAT scan is complete. I see him in the am on tuesday and in the pm I see the surgeon. I've decided that If I have to reschedule I'll do it the first week in December and return to work after the new year. I wasn't able to start work this week and won't be there on Monday when my students come I am a little down out .

Hey Girlfriend,

Sorry you're still going through so much.  Make sure you're getting extra protein as though you've already had surgery.  It promotes healing.  Unjury is medical grade (unjury.com) and low carb. 

Its been a while and considering you needed mom with you to get the respect you deserve, maybe its time for a second opinion to be sure he did not miss anything.  You had an emergency so you did not really choose him.  Perhaps a doctor of your choice would be better for follow up. 

I'll say a prayer for you.
