Guest guest Posted July 11, 2001 Report Share Posted July 11, 2001 I was wondering if anyone knows how far out they are currently scheduling surgeries at OHSU. I have a consultation appt with Dr. Deveny on Aug 6. Just trying to get a time frame for getting people trained to do my work for a while. Thanks Char in Portland now! (formerly Tulsa, OK) Re: Re: Need Help (, forgive me for not directing this to you), I wonder if is so dehydrated and malnourished that she is in a state of confusion and this is why she is not taking appropriate action. Does anyone actually know her or her home situation in order to lend a more direct form of aid? Thats a good point but repeatedly asking here and ignoring all the responses and what Dr Gagner is telling her is getting her nowhere. I think either someone needs to get her some help to her front door or find someone that knows her that can check in on her personally so we know she's not in an lifethreatening situation. I personally feel rather frustrated because she's apparantly not calling her local dr and seems to think reposting the exact same words is somehow going to magically fix things. No one here can fix anything. If things are as bad as she says, she needs medical attention yesterday. Being that she is an adult thou, I don't know what we can do...althought I suppose you could call the police to do a welfare check on her if anyone has her address. At least they could determine if she needs more help than she's getting, but I think that is a bit extreme...... ..you said you went to the ER twice...was that in the last two days??? ~~* AJ *~~ BMI 59 Surgery date 7/24/01 going self pay - Dr Baltasar Spain Check out the Bellingham Support for WLS WWW.lookin2bthin.homestead.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
