Re: Looking for a good doctor!!! (Atlanta GA)

Dear C Thornton,
I wish I did know of a good doc in Atlanta. I'm
in California and am very fortunate to have Cedar-
Sinai Hospital and the GI Motility Specialty Clinic
to go to.
I'd like to commend you on the support of your wife.
This problem is so devastating that marriages are
surely put to the test. Many don't survive. My husband
is like you. He's used all his sick leave, vacation,
and holidays to cart me around and now has full responsibility
for the house and chores, in and out. I don't think I
could take all this without him. He's many times the only
thing that keeps me going, beside my faith, and believe me,
that's put regularly to the test. I often feel like Job
and wonder when the boils are coming!!!! (Sad, but humor
intended...)
Best of luck to you both and I will pray for you to find
the right doctor who can at least try his/her best to
relieve your wife's pain. I no longer eat and am on my
fourth port-a-cath with TPN. Anything I eat does get
obstructed (actually pseudo-abstruction) and I vomit
nearlyl all the time because even the stomach doesn't
empty well now. Keep your faith or get help with
depression as you need. I started on an anti-depressant
a couple of months ago, and that REALLY helped both
of us!!!

Does anyone know of a good doctor in the Atlanta, GA area? My wife has
adhesions from several surgeries but her current surgeon does not "feel
comfortable" peforming surgery to remove them.
