I will need it again - shoot me an email.<BR/><BR/>Butterfly - the basic issue was that they had several patients (15) come back to the hospital with sutures not dissolving like they should have. The infection came from the fact that I was told to wear a sillicone patch to reduce scar tissue, but it was still an open wound and it became infected. It didn't look like an open wound to me but the back up doc in podiatry clinic nearly beat me for not realizing it was. To help get the rest of the sutures out they gave me a scalpel, had me cut the scab open each day and massage the wound. I got 3 or 4 pretty good sized sutures out of my foot. All that trama to the foot led to more scar tissue than normal.<BR/><BR/>I have no interest in sueing over it. But I have a good story about how the anethesiologist woke me up to early and freaked out my doc. I started talking to him, asking questions about the turniquit on my leg and telling him I could feel the tugging each time he pulled a stitch through. The man turned white, kept talking to me and then I went back out (someone upped the happy juice).<BR/><BR/>So yeah I guess I could sue but there is no permanent damage and the scar tissue is more of an inconvienence than painful. It along with 5 other problems I've had with military medical care makes me leary of major surgeries.Household6https://www.blogger.com/profile/03579283454319144548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12619517.post-15188594165563739902007-07-11T18:14:00.000-07:002007-07-11T18:14:00.000-07:00Hello Buddy.

She's the only one you got.<BR/><BR/>Household6 - "bad sutures"? I take it the hospital didn't offer up to "fix" the problem. I was a medical malpractice defense attorney for several years. Obviously, I do not know any more details of your situation, but you might want to consider talking to an attorney about that.
