Ok, Last Monday 08 13 2012, I went to the emergency room in cartersville due to what I believed to be the beginning of Necrotizing Fasciitis. I met Dr. Wachsmuth who recommended immediate surgery. I tried asking to wait and just see if antibodies would help and said she would rather do the surgery to be on the safe side. Now I'm no doctor so of coarse I'm going to listen because maybe there is something wrong. Here we are on the 22 of August and this wound in killing me and now she is telling me that I need to go back to Augusta to let them cut me open and find out what is causing this pain. I explained to this doctor that this pain feels the same as the first surgery I had and that I would consider her recommendation just not now due to the fact that I own a business and I can't afford to do it right now. She then goes on to tell me that she thinks either that there is a problem causing this pain or I have a pain medication problem. Well maybe I do have a problem because I have a drawer full of pain medications that just sit there but one thing those pain medications don't do is help the pain from this surgery that I probably didn't even need so now I get to sit here in pain until it goes away, which from my first experience won't be for a while. anyone that has a set of testicles know if you cut on or around them, it's gonna hurt for a while. Point being is there is a high chance I didn't need this surgery and this doctor is responsible for the pain I'm in. I will die before I ever let this lady touch me again!
