Frustration regarding Cataract Surgery and other Health Issues ...

My name is Lorelei and I am 51 years old..

I have a cataract in my right eye which has completely blinded me..
I have no vision and can only see grey shadows from right eye.
I have been scheduled for cataract surgery 4 times now and I
have been postponed by anestisiologist on every occasion!
I have been told that because of my health history.. I had a heart attack
6 years ago and my potassium levels were at 6.0 most recently but have
since come down to 5.!!

I am under a Doctor's care, I have a general practice Doctor that I have been
seeing once a week.. I have been given various medications and I feel I
am doing everything I need to be doing.
Due to lack of vision/ vision impairment I have fallen twice over the last 2 months..
the last fall fracturing my right wrist!
I also have a small cataract in my left eye and I am so afraid it is getting worse..
I have passed pre-op clearance 2 weeks ago and still anestisiologist wont
do the surgery..
Dont understand.. My eyesight is not a want.. it's a need!!
The last time my surgery was scheduled I was hooked up to I.V
and at the last moment the anestisiologist once again said he did not
feel comfortable doing surgery and would not do it for me once again!

For the record.. I am dealing with a hospital here in Chicago ranked 15th
in the nation.. not that that matters because it does'nt..
The opthamalogist keeps telling me he wants to help me..
Really?? Because absolutely nothing is being done to help me!

So.. I am saddended and disgusted by all of this, scared I will hurt
myself again..
Someone in my family tells me I need to jump all the hoops the
Doctors want me to go through..
Ridiculous Statement.. I am blind in 1 eye!
And.. now I am told I need Cardiac Clearance before any surgery..
Everything I have researched on-line tells me this is a low risk surgery..
Doctor said it would take 30 minutes!
I need this so desperately..
Any advice would be most appreciated..
Thank You,
Lorelei
