Hospital Emergency

July 2nd, 2010

I woke up in the middle of the night every night for about a month in the worse pain of my life. I come to find out that I have had been living with a gall stone floating around my gallbladder. I went to different doctors and they recommend that I wait as long as I can until I go into the hospital because they will most likely just take my whole gallbladder out. Well, I waited until the day I felt like I was going to die and had to be rushed in the emergency room.

We had small children in the car and had to wait until someone came and picked them up, so I had to walk into the emergency room of Trinity Mother Francis by myself. I felt like I was going to pass out right there due to the massive pain throbbing through my body. The lady behind the desk had me simply sign a few papers and sit in the crowded waiting room.

They got me back to the first lady who asked me a few questions pretty fast. Being a Friday night, the hospital seems like the popular place to go. After about a half an hour of horrible pain and the most uncomfortable chairs, they finally wheeled me into a small curtained room.

Sitting in an extremely cold room on an extremely hard bed hearing everyone around me, is not something I want to do on a Friday night. I do not understand some people’s reasons for going to the emergency room. That day I heard so many people coming in and out of the curtained rooms. So many people were complaining about sore throats or weird coughs. Seriously?

Why don’t you go to a walk-in clinic so that the emergency doctors can help people with real emergencies? It took a long time for the doctors to come because it was so crowded. Finally he was able to give me a pain medication and something for my nausea. After a couple hours I had to get a sonogram to see what the problems were.

They had discovered a stone, as I had thought. The surgeon came and talked to me. He was very descriptive about what was going to happen and the good and bad things about getting the surgery done. He was extremely polite, which by the end of my visit I realized that was not the case with most doctors.

After about six hours of the pole sticking in my back I was admitted to my room. The nurses were extremely nice and helpful. I had once written about having a child in the Trinity Mother Francis and I had complained about the nurses being rude and short with me. But when I was in this much pain the women were understanding.

When I needed help they were quick to come and help me, even if it was just using the restroom. I always feel silly when I ask questions that I am sure they have heard a ton of times, but they did not make me feel dumb or wonder why I am asking things.

Once I had been lying in bed not sleeping for about nine hours I was sent down to where they were going to perform the surgery. I was not so excited when I saw that it was back to the small closet sized curtain rooms.

My gallbladder has calmed down, at this point and my surgery was not on the top of the list. I saw many people wheeled into the room and quickly rushed out to surgery. I understood though, I wish they had sent me back to my room and more comfortable room for the four hours I sat there. The drama and gossip of the down stairs nurses did keep me quite entertained.

The second surgeon that came and saw me and later did the surgery was extremely short to me and “matter-a-fact” but he did a great surgery, and I guess that is what matters most right?

The next thing I know I am being wheeled back to the surgery room. I was greeted by smiling faces and surgery masks. The next thing I know the surgeon is in my face asking if I was ready to go home.

I could not think of anything but rolling over and going back to sleep. After he quickly told me what happened and what I could and could not do after the surgery. I had no idea what he was saying, good thing he went and talked to my husband also.

Only a few hours after the surgery I was being sent home. Recovery was one of the most frustrating things because I could not pick up my children and had to have people watch me for almost a week, because of the pain medication I was on. After the first week at home it was time to revisit the doctor.

Once again I saw the first surgeon and he was extremely nice and told me to go back to life as normal. I feel great now and I am glad that I had the surgery done.

Besides the waiting around everything went quite smoothly, and the people were extremely nice and helpful. They were very willing to work with us financially because we do not have Medicaid or insurance. The payments were more than we could afford so they helped us make payments that we could afford to pay.

I was very impressed with Mother Francis and I will be going there again if an other emergency happens, but I may just call an ambulance so I do not have to sit and wait in the emergency room for the doctor to prescribe the person in front of me cough drops from Walgreens.

B Ki Weight Loss Management in Tyler TX What Is It?

B Ki Weight Loss in Tyler Texas

B Ki Weight Loss in Tyler Texas

I have seen these billboards in Tyler lately talking about losing a lot of weight fast and it really peeked my interest as to what it is. A hint, pregnancy hormone shot.

I was thinking that it must be surgery or some new kind of pill but I found out it is something way different than both of those things.

This B Ki thing is a shot and what is injected into your body is a woman’s pregnancy hormone to trick your body into thinking your a pregnant woman even if you are a man.

This sounds pretty wacky doesn’t it? I will say if someone is morbidly obese why not give it a shot?

A morbidly obese person only has a few more years to live and so if shooting up woman pregnancy hormones will help them lose weight over surgical methods I say go for it.

I called B Ki up to see just how much they would tell me over the phone.

They would not reveal what it was they do but they did say I could get a free consultation with a Doctor.

So I at least know that I would be speaking with a real doctor at these Tyler Texas weight loss management clinics.

I found out that beyond shooting up hormones B Ki puts you on a low calorie diet.

You must maintain your diet as well as take the hormones for it to work.

There is debate out there as to whether the hormones even help in weight loss and some believe the weight loss achieved is simply from being on the low calorie diet.

If you are interested in learning more about B Ki you can call them by visiting their website and finding their number.

They will schedule a time and date for you to be counseled on your Tyler Texas weight loss management strategy.

They will likely explain the pregnancy hormone shots and low calorie diet plan in more detail.

Weight Loss 100 pounds in 100 days

June 27th, 2010

Has anyone in Tyler Texas looked into this B Ki system that some people have claimed to lose 100 pounds in 100 days?

I initially thought the billboards and TV ads were about lap band or other bariatric weight loss surgery but the site claims it is a non-surgical weight loss strategy.

In Tyler Texas I have started to see an increase in advertising for weight loss surgery with little if no ads for non- surgical weight loss techniques.

This B Ki advertising has really peaked my interest because of how aggressive they have entered the Tyler TX area weight loss market.

They have 8 offices in the Dallas Fort Worth TX area and appear to be setting up permanently in Tyler.

If anyone in Tyler has any positive or negative feedback on this weight loss business please rate them and comment below.

Weight Loss Surgery Consultation in Tyler

June 16th, 2010

When choosing a qualified Tyler TX weight loss surgeon it helps to go into it with some good interview questions.

Without understanding your options you can easily be talked into a more risky surgery than you need by a local Tyler doctor unfamiliar with the latest state of the art surgical techniques in weight loss surgery.

Keep in mind that those weight loss surgeons that promote thousands of successful surgeries are in an ugly way of saying it surgery farms.

They many times have perfected an outdated surgical weight loss technique.

Although they have completed many surgeries notice the absence of statistical information on the amount of those that resulted in complications later.

A smarter decision is to go with a surgeon that utilizes the most updated safe surgical techniques for weight loss.

A good bariatrics doctor will have many surgical techniques they have studied and chosen and will be able to explain the negatives and benefits of each.

Don’t be afraid to travel to find a good weight loss surgeon if that is what is needed.

Speak to a weight loss surgery consultant. many of these consultants have been through weight loss surgery and have done the research.

Some of these consultants have had the misfortune of choosing the wrong type of surgical technique and have had to deal with life threatening complications.

The pitfalls and 20/20 hind sight these consultants have after a bad surgery will help steer you to the best available surgeon using the most updated surgical techniques with less chance of complications.
