Guest guest Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Hi , Yes I already have that article on anesthesia. Thanks. The hospital where I want to have surgery sets up an interview with the anesthesiologist, but not the one you will have. I spoke with one in that department and he still felt there were very few changes they could make in their standard practice. I am concerned about that. How did you make out with your gallbladder out? Has your eating been better? Did you have a good primary care doc or a mito specialist that was caring for you during and after surgery?

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 I had a good mito doc that the anesthesia department consulted with. I haven't really changed much of my eating habits since the surgery. I always kept to a rather low fat diet anyway. I had gallstones for about 8 or 9 years before they became bothersome. I would at the very minimum make sure that they don't use ringer's lactate, take MH precautions and don't use propofol. If you can get them to order the carnitor by IV too, it should help. Have you had surgeries before that you had trouble with? If so, get the anesthesia report from that surgery and tell them you had problems with what was used. It is YOUR body, so you have the right to expect to be treated to have the outcome be the best for YOU! When is surgery scheduled? adamm4321 wrote: Hi , Yes I already have that article on anesthesia.

Thanks, Adam I don't have any docs for you in the Boston area, but make sure you print out and take the following article regarding anesthesia. Make an appointment with anesthesia for a day or two BEFORE the surgery and make sure that the doc ASSIGNED to your case will be the one you have the meeting with. It is not something that they can quickly go through. I have found that adding IV Carnitor to my surgery meds makes my recovery SO much better too. I had my gallbladder out in June. I hope for your sake they can do it arthroscopcially. > > Medical advice, information, opinions, data and statements contained herein are not necessarily those of the list moderators.
