Becky

How did your appointment go with Dr. Gagner? were you approved for your procedure? I am waiting for my consult in September and hoping surgery will not be too many months after that.

Is there any tests he wants done ahead of time?

Hope all is well and you are moving right along! Keep me posted I am anxious to know.

And who did your surgery and where if it wasn't done in Halifax.

Thank you.  I called my family doc, and the receptionist was less than friendly/helpful.  She said I had to come in, which obviously I would if I could.  I'm in so much pain right now...so glad to hear it will feel better once the staples are out.

Check out medicare.ca or is it medicard.ca

They give loans to go to Mexico. Just the interest rates are high.

I would think they family dr would have those answers, at least call and find out. You will feel much better when you get them out. Not sure why they would use staples anyways but hated them when they used them on my last csection.

Hi Everyone,

 

I am 6 days post-op, and have just returned home to NS.  My incisions are stapled together though, rather than stitches that just fall out on their own.  So I have a requisition from the surgeon to get them removed, but I have no idea where to go with it!  I'm still in too much pain to get out to my family doctor to ask her.  If anyone has any advice, I'd REALLY appreciate it.  I'm worried...
