Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 , Is the pathology report you're talking about the standard one that was done by the regular lab that Dr. Feng uses? If so, did you just ask Dr. Feng for a copy? I don't know why I didn't even think of asking for that, but I'll make a point to do that. Were you able to send your implants to Dr. Blais, or was that not possible? Sis > > Good Afternoon Ladies, > > I got a funny comment out of my doctor today. I went to see him to discuss any questions I had conerning post surgery recovery. Some of you may remember me talking about him and how I convinced him it was my implants making me sick. Even after all the info I gave him, he is still confused as to what was really happening to me. I gave him a copy of the pathology report stating that there was silicone in the scar tissue that Dr. Feng took out with the implants. As you read this, remember this is a doctor who said this... " Why was there silicone in it, you had saline implants? " I told him the shell was made of silicone. He then said, " that makes sense, you cant put saline solution in water soluble shells. " When I told my husband this, we had a good laugh as the ingnorance of most doctors. > > He did however, do some of his Laser Acupunture on my heart meridians. He knew to do this by using the results of a biomeridian stress assesment my Kinesiologist had done. I like that he is willing to accept and work with my alternative treatments. This gave me time to talk with him some more. Then he started to brainstorm ideas as to what I could do to help others. As if I never thought of that. Anyway, he suggested I write my congressmen and explain how I was seen by a lot of " knucklehead doctors " who couldn't find what was making me so sick. Then he grinned as a show that he was commenting on himself as one of them. And that there should be a law making plastic surgeons give contact information to support groups like ours and or some other person who is aware of implant risks. > > Anyway, I thought you all could use a chuckle! > > L > > > --------------------------------- > > Bring photos to life!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2006 Report Share Posted March 7, 2006 . . . I did get a chuckle of your doctor! . . . One person, one doctor, at a time . . . Let's see, how many more doctors do we have to go? Hugs, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 - Thanks for sharing! I am impressed that he could be humble enough to entertain the thought that perhaps he was mistaken about implants and then even go so far as to " brainstorm " with you. We need many more doctors like that---just ignorant, not fools! His question about where the silicone came from just goes to show that they just blandly accept what they are told (saline is harmless) without even bothering to think it through. Kind of like me. I didn't consider that a solid silicone shell could degrade. Duh!

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Wow, even the doctors don't think this one through until prompted! Whew, is there any hope for them? LOL.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Hey all! How are all of you guy doing? Well, like i mentioned previously, i went to the doctor yesterday about my hair loss and high blood pressure. He thinks that i also have a thyroid problem. so i got blood drawn ( which was a mess ). I first went down to the lab and they poked me twice and couldn't get anything. so i left and drank alot of fluids and went back. she poked me twice, but on the second time she got blood. Thank God! for some reason they always have trouble getting blood. Anyways..... about my blood pressure. at the doctor it was 150/98..... which my doctor didn't like. he is sending me to a cardiologist, b/c he wants to get my blood pressure down before it causes other problems. Well, i will keep you all updated. - MeGz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Hi, I looked at briar's head, and would consider it severe. I would definitely ask for references from babies that they think are comparable to briar. Also how many babies they have treated and how long they expect briar to be in the band. Also is that some kind of growth on the top of his head or just a small cut? If it is a permanent thing you might want to ask if the band would irritate it. Maybe the band will be open in that area. The ortho's experience will be key in your baby getting good results, so make sure they know what they are doing. We had a starband from a very experienced ortho and saw good correction (for severe brachy). Good luck and tell us how it goes. -christine sydney, almost 3 yrs, starband grad > > I will be going to the doctor for consult on helmeting, I think the > office uses Hanger...Does anyone have any questions that I should ask > or wished they would of asked?
