OMG, the relative, in his 50s, has gone in for I don’t remember how many surgeries to correct something from the previous one. He’s so many near death episodes with it all. He gets episodes of dizziness and has to rest a while, I’m guessing from the low bp. Then he gets horrid pains and infections so more weeks in the hospital. More than a dozen and a half emergency runs to the hospital aside from the scheduled appointments. Nipped whatever things during surgery. Stitches not holding. Leaks. You name it, it’s happened. He’s had to quit work and is now getting SSI. His life has done a 180 the past year or two. At first, we tried to laugh it off and said his wife was paying the doctor to bump him off but all the complications have been down right scary.
My friend has had a terrible time and she almost died....in fact she put things in order to die. She couldn’t eat and now she has bowel issues since having that hiatal hernia surgery that she never had before.
I wouldn’t have one of those, it’s dangerous.
I am so glad my chiropractor offered to fix mine. He said this will hurt like hell for minute, but you will be glad it was done....fifteen years ago, and no more problems, today I eat what I want and not even acid reflex or any problems. Amazing that most things can be fixed without surgery.
I’m so sorry about your relative, it must be hell when you are hungry but can’t eat without pain and infection...will pray for him too.
