I had a handout and have lost the source of where I got it.  Please link me to anything you would give a pcp.

Thanks so much!

There is tons of stuff on Dr Keshishan(sp) website as well. You can sign up for news letters there.. and you can scroll thru old newsletters for items of interest that pertain to you.

this is of interest to me too Becky since my surgeon Dr Husted is MIA (again) and altho his office said another doctor will follow up with his patients no one has called me back in 3 days after my message so I may have to educate my PCP to take over.

We all perhaps should have a folder with info about the surgery and all this anyway incase we end up in ER's or unable to speak for ourselves someday! I thought about putting one together too.

An old thread about info for the ER.

I haven't needed my surgeon since my surgery.  Why are you trying to contact Dr MIA anyway?

This is the first doc that actually asked for more information about the DS.  Most of them honestly don't care.
