Isn't it the gastroenterologist's job to detect hernia instead of me visiting the ER and getting surgery? - cat hernia intestine
In December 2008 I started a lot of abdominal pain and various symptoms of stomach pain to feel. Gastroenterologist in January 2009 and has the colonoscopy normal. Then I was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
Ibs drugs never worked for 5 months and I still suffer. Then, last week began with stomach pains are very strong and I rushed ER for 3 hours. A scan was done in my belly and it was known he had a hernia.
The break was torsion of the small intestine stifle blood flow and impedes digestion. Surgeons carried out immediately hernia Surgey in me and I was admitted to the hospital for a week. The doctor said that he would have failed arrived untreated hernia, small bowel as a whole.
However, the gastroenterologist IBS said. So this is misconduct on the part of gastroentrologist? He put the small intestine in its entirety is the risk of organ failure. And ended with a visit to rough ER.
For the surgeon of the rupture was due to scarring from the surgery, which he caused to the residence1989th
The doctor also said that the IBS diagnosis, which gastroenterologists not all types of tests and examinations are normal and if nothing is found, since the diagnosis of IBS.
But the gastroenterologist clearly not all of the tests, since it will not allow any scanner. He had a colonoscopy and said IBS. The break was not even in the large intestine, but not (in the vicinity of the small intestine shown in the colonoscopy).
I continued to pay thousands of dollars, a gastroenterologist, even though I have no health insurance, because my stomach was so heavy. For all that, though money earned paid for, would not at least respect their obligation to make a correct diagnosis?

I agree that the gastroenterologist should undergo testing to rule out anything serious, but should the problem if it is followed not improve. Will do, if you traveled with your life, you could see another doctor to find out more tests to what was wrong. This is not because of the gastroenterologists, that you have no health insurance, and adhered to, could have enormous medical expenses if he has more tests to diagnose a hernia. If the fracture would have been caught before they reached the emergency room, it would still had to undergo surgery to repair it. If you even thought about insurance, you should before something did happen. If you had waited for the diagnosis of hernia, the insurance company as a state and can not be treated anyway.
