Thanks to Flower I might be saying bye-bye to Brigham and Dr. Robinson!!!   I called the Dr. she gave me and the secretary said she would probably take me on!!!  She was horrified at their program and his lack of action on my stomache pain. She couldn't believe he did not scope me before surgery knowing I had a scope 6 months earlier from GI spec that showed I had gastritis and duodenitis with erroding cilia, as well as a hiatal hernia!!  So my stomache might not have been ready for surgery! She asked for my records so the Dr. could review them and set up a consult!!! I called immediately to have records faxed! They should be there today and I should find out sometime today. I'm going to call to make sure she got them! And as frar as my stomache goes, I called my GI specialist and she is getting me in Friday morning if not tomorrow. Her schedule was booked for tomorrow but she might make an exception. YAY Someone who was genuinely concerned!  Thanks for all your advice guys! I'm so glad I found you guys! I will keep you posted.
