why is he soooo rude to me?

im in the process of switching doctors from evason to dr mattar? in hopes that he is more supportive then dr evanson has been towards me-i had my revision on feb 26 things are going okay but i still seem to struggle every single day on fluids sometimes i just feel like i cant do this and dr evanson dont help my situation he was like everyone else can do this why cant you? i started crying im already on a roller coaster from not feeling well-i was just wondering about dr mattar and and the clarion hospital? does the clarian hosp have a special bariatric floor like st vinncents? i already transfred my medical records to dr mattar and he will be seeing me with in a week or so after reviewing my records-im nervous about switching drs but i just felt this tension between dr evanson and i and i dont feel confident having him as my doctor any longer he dont support me at all im in need of some compassion--he also mentioned to me i was on goverment insurence and asked dont my husband work? i was like theres no way he just said that ****my hubbys laid off collecting unemployment and is a very strong support for me hes the only person that i have as support-also dr evanson said my potassium was low because i havent been taking my vitamins well he mis judges me because i do take my vitamins and i looked at the bottle vitamins dont have potassium in them? so what was he thinking ??or was he??

clarian north does have a baritric unit...also Dr.Mattar is wonderful ..very nice ,he is the director of clarianbartric...when i had my surgery .the morn I was going home he sat down next to my bed and wacthed the today show with me . now what doc would do that....also my couson is mildley mently hadicap and he isdoing his surgery next week .he is letting him have a nurse that is the friend of his family go in and scrub up with him during his surgery .so that my couson will not be scared.....he is wonderful.....

well this is really good to know about dr mattar! ive just had a horrible time with dr evanson-hes a good doctor but he is very rude to me and i do not like that at all-

Have you told him you are switching to a new Dr?  Some people are just outspoken and dont really care how they come across.  I wouldnt fret over it or you will give yourself another ulcer.  You have a new doc now, so just start over and put the grinch on the back burner...lol! Hope you are doing well with your revision. Hang in there!

yea i relize i worry to much about what everyone else has to say or think and my lifes on such a roller coaster right now i need to calm down and relax because i dont need another ulcer i cant wait to meet dr mattar--dr evanson done pissed me off to the max......hows things going for you? the revision is going okay but im still struggling something firece on drinking i try and drink all day long and still cant get enough in?

I am doing well.  My Dr's nurse told me start back up on the Carafate religiously so I havent had anymore problems since doing that.  I dont get my fluids in like I should either.  It is very hard to do especially when you were never a big drinker to start with.

I've heard wonderful things about Dr Mattar even though I've never met him.  But I did go through Clarian and everyone on their staff in the best.  I recommend the Clarian system highly.

hi there well this is good to know im nervous about switching everything but then again im not going to feel uncomftorble with dr evanson ----he just seems to bring me down and i dont need that on top off everything else going on right now-

I'm sorry things are so crazy right now. Keep your head up and keep taking your vitamins and following all the directions. I know the struggles with fluids. It was October almost 3 months post op before I could get all my fluids and keep them down. Some days I still struggle with drinking enough (but thats mostly because they want me eating 7 times a day and waiting 30 mins after makes it tough) other days I do AWESOME like I drank 2 20 oz bottles of water in about 40 mins the other day talking to my old boss. It just depends I guess on the day and what not. I was pretty uncomfortable after doing that the other day and we had to stop every 15 mins on the way home from Louisville for a potty break LOL. After a few stops I wasn't hurting anymore but I think it was because it was ice cold and I tried to drink tooooo fast.

i feel like im in and out of the hospital too much--i usually buy a big 48 ounce cup of ice fill it full of water and drink on it all day and cant never fin**** maybe i should try smaller cups? i donno? i no u have had alot of problems r u feeling better? they took my picc line out after the revision i hope to god i never need another 1 because i had the vagel response and that was very very scarry--now id be to scarred to ever let them do another one! i seen a kidney dr plus urologist because im having problems peeing and they said i have a slow stream and bllod in the urine was sending my urine off to be tested and said im not drinking enough and im about to the end not sure what to do how do i make myself do this? my mind hurts from all this stress--im hoping i have better luck switching doctors
