Post: Surgical Instrument in My Body for 35+ years. Do I have a ca

Posted by Roy leMeur on 7/02/11
Hi Folks
I have never attempted to pursue this. After thirty five
years this is the first time I am making this known.
A brief description of the situation as I know it...
In the second grade I was kidney punched by a classmate.
According to doctors years later, this led to malfunction in
my left kidney making it unable to drain.
When I was 17 years old,1975, I had pain in my left kidney
area and pissed blood.
After painful probes by local doctors I was referred to a
world-renowned medical facility in Southern California where
a world-renowned Chief of Urology did a seven hour surgery
in an attempt to repair the damage from a kidney that would
not drain with multiple kidney stones.
I was left with a large scar and a drain tube.
Weeks later, I recall being looked at by a couple of young
doctors as a follow-up at that same world-renowned medical
facility. While sitting across from them on a bed, I recall
them being wide-eyed and jaw-dropping as they looked at my
xrays.
I asked to look at the xrays and they immediately removed
the xrays from the viewer and they told me everything was OK.
I suspected there was a problem at that point.
I was never as limber and as active after that time.
Defecating is always an issue. I was never offered any
physical therapy or recovery of any kind after my surgery.
Fast forward to 1996, after a night of drinking with some
friends, I coughed while have a relaxed abdomen and the next
morning had a sizable bubble in my skin immediately adjacent
to my anus [right side]. I never sought medical attention
for this and within a relatively short period of time it
healed itself.
Summer 2010, July, I was sitting on the toilet, again, with
a relaxed abdomen, and coughed.
Immediately adjacent to my anus, on the right side, a
painful bubble stuck out of my skin. It was hard inside and
made me curious as to what it could be.
I inserted a finger in my anus in an attempt to figure it
out and was amazed that I could feel, very clearly, what
seemed to be the business end of a metal surgical clamp
right next to my colon. There is _no doubt_ that this it
what it was. The human body does not host hard and fast
metal objects inside it.
I am now 53 years old. I want this thing out of my body. I
would settle for a few hundred grand and the removal of this
clamp.
Do I have a case? Xrays will prove it. World-renowned
medical facility and world-renowned chief of urology at that
facility should make it a no-brainer.
