I had similar issues with my doctor. He gave me a very hard time because I'm so young, according to him. I'm 30. When I went to the seminar, I asked if they could recommend a supportive doctor and I went to him. It was smooth sailing from there! I recommend you get a new doctor.
I'm being sleeved this Thursday and I want to attend my friend's nursing school graduation in four weeks. Do you think it will be safe for me to fly then?
