"The staff treated me very good, they had difficulty sticking and was so apologetic and I told them hey not your fault and they really did a good job and really did not hurt me. Was very much on top of giving my pain medicine and told me never hesitate to ask."
"I had my surgery on 9/12/06 and when I came out of recovery I only had pain in my left shoulder. I was told it should go away in about 48hrs that it was probably the air they pumped in. 4hrs after surgery I was up walking and having my clear liquid diet and went home the next day.rnrnUnfortunately on 9/14/06 I developed severe pain in my left shoulder and shortness breath, I called Dr. Ray and he informed me to go to the Emergency Dept and have a scan to make sure I did not develop a blood clot. I did have a blood clot in 2002 so I knew I was at risk and to be honest that was what I feared the most and not the surgery itself.rnrnI was found to have a small clot in my right lung. I am still in the hospital this is Monday 9/18/06 and today I feel about 95% better. The pain in my shoulder is much better and I do now believe it was the air and it finally passed today. Dr. Ray has been very informative and said I am doing great and he always takes time to make my questions are answered to my satisfaction.rnTHANK YOU DR. RAY FOR A CHANCE TO LIVE A FULL LONG HAPPY AND HEALTHY LIFErnGOD BLESSrnDonna"
