See Mexican Bandsters post # 13725. The lady died, which is extremely unusual.
She surely made some big mistakes in not seeking help sooner, but it also sounds as if that last fill from Dr Rodtiguez, without fluoro, sent a serious situation over the edge. It sounds like she was about ready to erode, and a fluoro would have found it and prevented her death.
I've heart from quite a number of people who had port infections and port flips, (more than the average, I think) requiring more expensive surgery. Ask on The Mexican Bandsters board for more.
I believe Dr Rodriguez is one of the very few doctors who do not suture the port down, perhaps leading to mor flips and turns maiking the post not able to be filled.
Everyone says he is very nice though, and his coordinator Barbara is too. But I guess "nice" is only part of it. Renee |
