Ok, I had my surgery on 10/31. Keep in mind I am only 20 years old and have never had a big surgery before. I am HIGHLY senesative to any kind of anestesia or medications. I thought I was going crazy in the hopsital the day after surgery and no one told me about having all that gas in your chest and while i was sleeping all the sudden it felt like my heart was having a heart attack and my heart rate went up to 165. I woke up and freaked out so the doctor had to come down. When I was leaving the hospital the doctor was (kinda) rude about the whole thing telling me that I was crying wolf..... well im sorry if im very young and have never felt like that in my life. Anyway, the doctors office pre op never told me anything about what I was going to feel like after surgery, the tightness, the gas, the ANYTHING..... my impression was that I would be fine within a couple days... the nurse told me.... Oh no biggy we have patience that shop the next day after being banded. SO THAT IS WHAT I WAS EXPECTING!! Well, two weeks out and I feel LIKE SH*T. I will admit I called the office too many times and called the oncall doctor because I was so scarred that I something was wrong because I was that far out and still feeling absolutely HORRIBLE and Euphoric.... i felt like I was on Shrooms or something crazy. Anyway..... now 6 weeks later FINALLY I get to talk to my surgeon for the first time after surgery and he is so rude and tells me about the boy who cried wolf and that I am famous at the hospital in TX ( I am in NEW MEXICO) and that everyone knows me. I was like WHAT>? I have talked to 2 different doctors and one nurse AND NEVER ONCE DID MY SURGEON CALL TO TELL ME I WAS OK OR ANYTHING SINCE SURGERY...... to me that is stupid. ANYWAY, WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO SAY TO THAT?? I AM SUPPOSE TO GO TO TEXAS NEXT WEEK FOR MY FIRST VISIT POST AND I AM EMBARRASSED AND SO PISSED OFF. What do I do?
I feel like noone understands at all.....

I understand completely. I went to him only for a consult a year ago, and he treated me the same way. I couldn't believe the way he treated me, like I was an idiot and a failure. He refused to tell me any of the reasons behind his decisions, and to be honest, I felt like he was upset that I was a New Mexican bothering him. Fortunetly for me, my insurance stoped covering the proceedure a month later while I was trying to get an Authorization. I still want the surgery, but I am glad that He will not be the one to do it. I feel he is a terrible doctor. He needs to work on his bed side manors
