Dr. Jimmy's back out


Dr. Jimmy Thomas, my Plastic surgeon gone off to Qatar and when I tried to contact him, his assistant said he’ll be back by December so I decided to wait but again I informed by his assistant on this late December that Dr. Jimmy Thomas is planning to stay there for another 8 or 9 months and it would be better if I search for another specialist. So I’ll have to think about another plastic surgeon and my doctor’s suggestion is to consult Dr. Vijayakumar a plastic surgeon Fort Hospital Trivandrum.


Well, as per my doctors consent, my appointment at fort hospital was today at 10 am and I found Dr. Vijayakumar is not happy with my case. His opinion was my nose's skin is considerably thicker than normal ones so shaving off skin can cause bunny nose effect means button nose like clowns and reducing the size by one or two millimeters could satisfy through this but reducing 2 mm is not really pleasing.  Then the second way is the surgeon has to find one cartilage from ear and put in my nose which is called rhinoplasty and that is the way which Dr. Vijayakumar preferring but he is afraid that it could affect breathing as my nostrils are so small so he wish to get a second opinion from Dr. Jayakumar,  a senior plastic surgeon Specialist Hospital Ernakulum. I wonder Dr. Jimmy Thomas has never mentioned such kind of problems on my case and once he assured me that it’s a simple case and we could do inside his clinic itself no need of me to go to any hospital for this silly surgery.  Wish him to be back, but I know this wish won’t change into reality. And the truth is I gonna suffer again and again and finally another Dr. Sreejith could come on screen and everything gonna shatter like a sand castle like the last time happened.  But this time it’s not going to hurt me much since it is not a long 3 year agenda and this kinda experience is not something 'NEW' to me..
