I'm in Lake Charles. Was sleeved 10/14/13 & was self pay too. I used Dr. Gachassin in Lafayette, he is AMAZING!

I was set for Sept. 9 but just got moved to Oct. 14 due to financing issues. I'm ready!!! Not even really nervous now, just want this time to fly by!

I'm in the waiting room at my psych eval appt. I'm excited, it means I'm one step closer to surgery!

I do have severe migraines and 3 doctors have told me losing weight will help them get better but, other than that, I have no obesity related illnesses either. Normal blood pressure, no diabetes, nothing... No family history, either. My reason for wanting the surgery is mostly cosmetic, but also as a preventive measure. I've thought long & hard about the risks and weighed my options, but I know I will never be truly happy if I don't get my weight under control. I'm 32 and I have too much life left to live to be miserable!

Hello, I am pre-op and wanted to ask anybody who has already been sleeved and also suffered from migraines if the surgery has helped? I was recently diagnosed with pseudo tumor cerebri (a specific type of migraines) and my doctors all say losing a significant amount of weight quickly will help. Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
