Odd Support Group/suffolk Va

So I went to the mandatory support group meeting and it was interesting. Out of the 50 or so pre/post op there all of them were gastric bypass. Not only was I the youngest one there (Im 26) I mentioned sleeve and everyone was like no do gastric, gastric this that or the other. And then the nurse proceeded to tell everyone how there is no long term research (which is true) but made the sleeve sound not so good. The few other people in the room considering sleeve were looking scared after her spiel. With a surgery like this it makes you nervous and double guess your decision I guess. The research is there. I feel there are less issues with the sleeve.

 

Oh anyone in Virginia??? Im doing all my stuff with Bon secours in Harborview. Looking to meet people in the area having this done or who have had it done.

 

Any who! Back to work I guess.
