HELP!!!!!!!!!!CONFUSED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Irvington AL , She is absolutely right. You may never have the first problem. You have to do what is best for you. The doctor should have to answer somehow for the problem with the gallbladder. Its a shame they don't go ahead and remove everyone's since the eventualality of problems later on is so high. She will be in my prayers. Is there a county hospital she can get medical care at in her area? Keep us informed ok?

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 Thanks Wolfie, At the time of her surgery she was under medicaid(she wasnt married at the time)she intially had her surgery at Mobile Infirmory. There is a local county hospital " USA Children and Womens Hosp'l " . But since she is now married(hubby is commercial fisherman) she is no longer eligible for state ass't.She has already tried. The only good part comming out of this is I now know what to look for and have insite on the whole thing,I am not turning back now...Ive come to far..... Thnks for all of your concerns....

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2003 Report Share Posted November 3, 2003 , Has your cousin ever worked? If so she could get the surgery through Alabama State Rehabilitation Services. That is what they do is help people with problem to get back to work. Even if she hasn't work they will do it so she can work if she is the age of able bodied worker. A. B.
