First of all, document EVERYTHING. You keep a journal, and get a journal for her to keep of her experiences. If she has a husband, he should keep a journal as well. Tomorrow, Monday, call / consult with medical malpractice attorneys. DO NOT WAIT. It sounds like she may have some long term consequences medically, and she should at the very least have her medical expenses covered. [/quote] Listen to this person. And I am sorry your daughter is suffering due to some idiot Dr's mistake. I won't get into it but I have been in a similar situation. [/quote]

My daughter had surgery for endometriosis this past Tuesday.
She had hoped to have her ovaries left intact but because of the severity of the fibroids (from what I understand) they did a hysterectomy instead. Tried to do it vaginally, couldn't, had to do it abdominally.
Okay, so one of the fibroids was attached to her bladder. In removing it they either cut or tore the bladder resulting in a repair to the bladder and she had to be put on a catheter.
Let me also add here that the doctor who performed the surgery QUIT the day after this surgery. I'd like to know why? Quit voluntarily, let go, or?
She's thinking she'll be able to leave in a couple days but no, not feeling better.
Late last night they did an emergency surgery. Seems the colon had been cut during the initial surgery and had been leaking into her stomach all this time! I'm also told that they removed additional fibroids missed during the first surgery.
They had to remove part of her colon and she now has a colostomy bag in addition to the catheter.
Bladder infections??
Future colostomy???
Medical malpractice????
