I had a complete historectomy done and the doctor accidentaly stitched closed my ueterer. As a result of the stitch I now have a whole in my uterer. I know have a tube in my back into my left kidney and carry around a urine bag. It has been roughly 9 weeks of multiple problems back and forth to the doctors. It has partially healed but has not healed totally. The doctors are suggesting surgery to correct this mistake. Please inform me as to waht my options are and if possible who you suggest to see for a second opinion? Thank you for your help.
