When to get mad?

So I am super happy with the incisions that have the staples removed and what has been done to my abdomen but super worried about infection as long as these staples are still in the last incision when they were supposed to be out.  Receptionist or whoever answered the phone wants to wait for available appointments.  Waiting on nurse to call me back and doing a slow burn!!!

Randy, I know how you feel. I agree, waiting for someone to return your call is not fun. Especially since it was thier mistake.

Randy-  I agree I wouldn't want to mess with infection and would want to get those those staples out ASAP.  Wasn't there someone here once that had battle infection after surgery and it was a long drawn out affair and took months.  I don't remember who it was...but I remember the ordeal. 

about 2000 I had an infection that required all of my mesh be removed and I was left open for two years and unrepaired for thirteen years.  I look kinda nice right now but this staff amazes me and I really have thoughts of Armageddon for them right now.

Randy,

Knowing me I would be either calling my regular doctor if I cannot reach my surgeon or I would be taking them out myself.  I am the do it yourself type and when I saw that they basically used a staple remover I was like  HUH?  While that would not be recommended -- just saying.   I would be going over the doctors head and reach higher up levels of the hospital.  We do have to advocate for ourselves.
