Re: Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
Feeling even better than before! The holes are mostly closed up now, and I'm back to being hyper-energetic. Once they're fully closed I'll be adding in vibration daily to help break up the harder bits of hematoma I couldn't squeeze out faster. Looking at maybe 100cc left, almost the same size as I ...

Re: Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
Saw the doctor yesterday, got a lot of useful information and a blood panel done to check for infection. Unfortunately, I can't close off the dime sized opening till we know it's not infected(all indications are that it's not). This morning, changing the bandage, a lot of the hematoma came out on ...

Re: Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
Update: Been calling around using the resources provided to try and find a urologist to treat me, getting the run around with nothing to show for it. Same condition I've been in. Out of pain meds so just dealing with it. Really wishing someone would just spare the office time to see me instead of ...

Re: Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
I just received a bill for $3738.65 for going to the emergency room, per everyone's recommendation two weeks ago. Nothing was done to me to warrant this bill.

Re: Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
You will have time later for regrets but for now you need to take yourself to an emergency room. Likely you are having a lot of drainage that is tinged by blood. I doubt if you could still be bleeding after this time and be able to type. You are a patient in need of care and demand that you ...

Three weeks post-op, still bleeding
It's almost 4 in the morning and I'm awake. I woke up to the wet of blood, as I have every night for the last three weeks since I did a poorly done self-orchi. Last Saturday, two stitches came undone, and the bleeding has been intolerable(It's what I get for using absorb-able sutures on the exterior ...

Re: dr arnkoff new website
Holy wow, I'm a friggin moron. I thought an orchi was $7,000. I cut myself because I thought it was that expensive, when this dude was just a 12 hour drive off, for only 2k.
