Scared very important need feed back

Hi my name is Annrenee, I am having gastricbypass April 24 day before my bd and I have a lot of medical promblems and i am on meds on is morphine Im afraid of being undertreated for pain, not only that I am on klonipin and other meds doctor said I will not be recieveing these in the hospital the side effect are bad to come off and i am trying to come off but being with out and being in pain I am scared the onset of coming off those meds and in pain will be a big issue. Not only that I have trouble keeping down the stuff to clean you out I asked him about these pills and he direcarded that like I didnt know what I was talking about and is making me take golightly. he has stated with all your problems you sure you want bypass instead of lapband. Yes I want bypass I have diabetes and love sugar if i go with lapband i know i will suck it all through a straw. help Annrenee Thankyou kitkat kathy for this site

The hospital will not let you be in pain! But...go ahead and bring your other meds to the hospital to take but be sure and let them know. This is what a friend of mine had to do because he is bi-polar and could not go without his meds. He did fine. What is concerning me is the attitude your doctor had with you...he doesn't sound like he is listening to your concerns. You really need to make sure he is the one you want since you will be with him for a long time. Talk to him frankly about your concerns...and Good Luck!!!

THANKYOU not only is he the only doc i have found since 2005 he really is a good doctor. I will take my meds in and I will call my primary and talk with her too. she had the bypass about 6 months ago and doing good a differetn doc but she is doing good. do you think i really need to have someone with me 24 hr aday for 7 to 10 days can you tell me how you went through this. thankyou Annrenee

I tell you what...the best thing to do...since there is so much to tell, is to go to my profile and read. I did not sugarcoat anything there, LOL...it's all there, the good and the bad. Let me know if you have questions...don't worry, it's not a book, I promise!

Annrenee, I was given all my meds while I was in the hospital. The only one they couldn't give but used my bottle instead was my chemo pill. Dr. Colquitt take great care of you. He does have a great bedside manor, so does his partner Dr. Ray. I was put on a pain pump with Hydromorphone. I was sent home after five days in the hospital with the same pain meds. I am on it now because of the cancer in my bone marrow and blood. I take them only when it's unbearable. But as for psych meds, you will receive them while you are in the hospital. He won't make you go thur the with drawals of those medications as that would entail you to be very sick to your stomach and he's not going to let your pouch get damaged from being sick. So don't worry about that. Just do what you have to do to get thru your surgery with as little stress as possible. May God travel with you. You really do have a great Dr. Put your trust in God's hands to guide your surgeon's hands and trust Dr. Colquitt to take good care of you. You'll do fine. He also believes in God. Kathy

Kathy then why did he say i wouldnt get those meds in the hospital? I am all confusedi told him the dilaudid made me sick and prjectile throwing up but he is gonna give it to me anyways i am on morphine and others he asked me again did i think i really wanted the bypass instead of lapband..... o well guess i am gonna go with the flow. thankyou
