Mayo Clinic I smell a rat! My provider, without knowledge of "my case" misinformed doctor at Mayo Clinic, PRC program and I ended up with label "Chronic Pain" Rochester Minnesota
My provider, who was with Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, TX talked to someone at Mayo Clinic in the Physical Pain Rehabilitation Department which led to a nightmare of inability to be checked. I had had 6 1/2 hour unnecessary sigmoid resection which led to a hernia - the hernia was evident while at Mayo. This led to another surgery. I reported extreme pain/symptoms following surgery (also reported to surgeon who blew me off) and now, because "Chronic Pain" is my label, I cannot get attention to the fact that following hernia surgery I started having extreme abdominal cramps; could not clean out for colonostomy; incontinence (fecal) many changes, but, I smell a rat. The Trauma Surgeon I recently saw was looking at an old CT; said surgeon who did the surgery is highly regarded but, facts are facts, yet, nobody will try to piece together. So, active, healthy, never had gastro issues prior, I can't be taken seriously. My body is full of mesh. The night of the surgery, I broke the epidural because it apparently hit nerves that sent me into pain unlike anything I had ever had, yet, because of pain from MVA, this was dismissed as "she's always in pain"
Why, if prior to surgery, I did not have fecal incontinence, did not have major pain in area where colon was removed and hernia repair was done, would a doctor choose to look closely. He was looking at old tests. Said he would have films reviewed but didn't.
Mayo Clinic - they can do no wrong? So, I went from back pain to this? And, nobody will trace the issue?
I wrote to the surgeon who did hernia repair and told him about new symptoms. He said to send tests to him and he'd pick doctors; however, he had already left Mayo (apparently sued) so why would he want to see tests? I've seen doctor after doctor cover their backs; they will not put patient first, in my experience.
Now, I will report Brooke Army Hospital.
