Surgery and Hospitalization

Blepharoplasty is a safe operation when performed by a specialist with experience who understands the importance of the relationship between the eyelids and the functioning of the eye.

Are you a dieabetic? If you are, you may try a harmone called byetta. It tells your body how much insulin to make, after you have eaten. I just had the operation, and that was one of the questions, I asked? They told me, I shoulden't? So there you have it.

When you are going in for surgery, you need to take your diet very seriously. Your diet before surgery is very important, since the types of foods you ingest within a certain time frame can impact many things. Not only can it make things "messier" when the anesthesia is applied, but a full stomach can lead to a number of different complications. You may require more anesthesia to go under successfully, and you may have a more violent reaction to the anesthesia after you wake up. This is why it is of the utmost importance that you watch your diet.

Yes, because when you need a transplant your sick. You can only get a transplant if you need it.

No I just found out you can't. If you were sick and you got a new organ that wasn't used to your body, that would be double the trouble. why? Because The bacteria from you being sick would affect your new organ. also it would be doubled bad because your other body parts (Around the new organ) would think that the new organ was trying to talk over you body. so they would attack the organ. but most people take medicine for that but they have to take it for the rest of there lives.

No.

Perhaps it could if it was fresh. however the only way to get anything resembling a foreskin if you are circumcised is through Foreskin restoration. this takes some time, but is credited restoring the sensitivity of the penis glans when in place.

Maybe my answer is more of an opinion, but NO, you should not smoke pot, At All...

However, if you do smoke anything, to avoid getting dry sockets, you should not after having surgery on your wisdom teeth, at least not within 48 to 72 hours.

History of receiving organ or tissue transplantation is disqualifying per AR 40-501 Ch 2.

Skin removal surgery is also known as body contouring surgery. This is usually done by a plastic surgeon to remove excess skin after extreme weight loss. The cost for body contouring surgery can start at about $6,000 and range depending on what parts of the body you are having done.

From my understanding a vasectomy is not 100%, just as a "tubal" is not 100%. My suggestion would be to get a home pregnancy test and find out what it reads. Good luck for whatever result you are looking for:)

Before you have your eyelid surgery, you have a consultation with a medical professional to see if you are a good candidate for the surgery. The consultation will include your medical history, allergies, medical conditions, etc. After the surgery has taken place you will ensure that you have a followup with your doctor and they can answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Recovery for most women is somewhat painful for about 3 to 4 days but with Tylenol #3 the pain is tolerable; after that there is still some pain but it is not severe. Worst part is you are not allowed to sit so you need to lay or stand.

As always, recovery from any surgery depends on the person's overall health, other conditions, ability to ambulate (walk), lung function and ability to cough effectively in the 24 hours post-op, how well the person understands and can follow post-op instructions, and how much the person is motivated and desires to have a good outcome.

Surgery is usually easier for younger women rather than elderly women.

Mastectomy surgery is defined as the surgical removal of breast and breast tissue. It can be performed on high risk women who want to possibly prevent breast cancer or women who have breast cancer.

Any surgery is risky. Believe it or not there is a high rate of success in heart surgery. Specialists for the heart have come a long way and are very adept at what they do and deaths are at a very low percentage. The most important thing is the patient has faith in them. If a patient is going in for ANY surgery and has ANY questions they should speak to their doctor or try to schedule a meeting with the heart surgeon. The patient has a right to know what is going to happen before, during and after heart surgery. Since this is a 3rd open heart bypass then the patient would find it frightening, but more comfortable about it than having to go through it the first time. The mind is a wonderful thing, so a good outlook for heart surgery of any sort is a must. Learning relaxation exercises (slow breathing, small walks if the specialist OKs this.) Even if a person can't walk they can listen to soft music, close their eyes and invision a beautiful place they would like to be and they don't have to take one step to do that. Believing in the faith of your choice is one of the strongest things a person has going for them. The patient should allow short visits from family and friends so they are not constantly alone with their fears. I know many people who have heart surgery and it's added many, many years onto their lives. Good luck & God Bless Marcy

Find a daVinci robot surgeon and you will only be in the hospital overnight. Home a week or so, and back to work in 2 weeks light duty. Most of the healing is complete at 3 months.

If you don't have the daVinci, 1 week hospital, 6 weeks home, 3 months light duty.

Yes, the night after my surgery, just above my belly button (the incision is in my belly button) I had a lump that was just like the hernia that was there prior to surgery, I freaked out and called the DR in the middle of the night, scared that my hernia had popped back out. He got me in to see him the following morning and told me that it was a Hemotomoa, and that it would harden, calcify and dissolve on it's own. I just saw him again today and he told me the same thing. I had the surgery on the 9th of this month (december) and he said the same thing, well as i sit here in an umcomfortable situation tonight, I have just discovered that the Hemotomoa is harder and larger, I will be calling him first thing in the morning to see if this is something I should be concerned about or not. Will try and post an update after I talk to him in the morning.

I had my thyroid removed in December. I was sure to read all the bad news about thyroid removal to prepare myself for the worse! However, i have had some good results. I was out of work a week and a half, gained only 2 pounds in 7 months, and have a small scar about an inch long that continues to improve. I also was fortunate enough to have found the right level of synthroid after 2 doctor visits. So I am very happy with the results! My doctor advised me to not exceed 5 lbs in weight gain or loss in order to maintain the level of synthroid I take now. All is well!

Complications following arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery are very rare. Such complications occur in less than 1% of cases. These complications include instrument breakage, blood vessel or nerve damage, blood vessel clots, infection, and inflammation.

Hello. Yes, they do intubate you during surgery. I recently had surgery (a week ago). After I woke up I had a little trouble breathing and my throat was sore. They said they had to tube me. I asked them why and they said they tube everyone who has surgery. I found a link that you might find very helpful. Hope it helps :D http://surgery.about.com/b/2008/08/21/what-is-intubation-and-why-do-i-have-to-have-a-tube-in-my-throat-for-surgery.htm

While complete recovery after a spine fixation surgery takes a while, a patient may be released from the hospital within 5-10 days. Patients are also initially advised to avoid activities that may

place the bone graft at risk. This includes being aware of one’s posture, avoiding bending and lifting heavy objects. Care should be taken while getting in and out of bed. Patients are also

required to be especially careful while dressing, bathing, and wearing shoes.

Usually one can restart driving 6 weeks after surgery though your doctor must approve this first.

The main thing to remember while recovering from spine fixation treatment is that no matter what you do, it should not aggravate any pain in your back. If the activity you do results in further back pain, stop it immediately and consult your doctor.

Ranka Hospital, Pune provides treatment for Spine Fixation.

The bariatric sleeve is a newer method of surgery used to constrict the stomach to achieve weight loss for morbidly obese patients. It is also called a sleeve gastrectomy, in which approximately 85% of a patient's stomach is surgically removed. The result is a stomach that is approximately the size of a banana. Employing the bariatric sleeve has several advantages. The sleeve gastrectromy is a simpler operation that is performed laprascopically and exhibits fewer complications than gastric bypass or duodenal switch. Disconnection and reconnection of the intestines is also not required.

In most cases, gallbladder surgery can be done as an outpatient procedure, called a laparoscopic cholecystectomy or "lap collie" for short. The laparoscope allows the surgeon to remove the gallbladder with only three small incisions instead of having to open the lower abdomen wide.
