Are you diabetic? If so, that's a major reason to have bypass. Look for a second opinion! You deserve that much...
I was told I am insulin resistant. I think that is what I will do

Ok, I have been approved for surgery with the sleeve. But here is the thing, my PCP said I should not have the sleeve but the gastric bypass. The surgeon said I could not get the sleeve because I was too big (526) and I am anemic ( I am anemic due to heavy long periods that are brought on from my obesity). I am just worried about the surgery not being the right tool for me since I have so much to lose. I do not want to have to have a revision. Then when I asked my coordinator she said "Medicaid does not do any revisions for weight loss surgery so you will have to make this work". I understand that but my nutritionist said my problem is not over eating its an absorption issue ( which I do not know exactly what it means) and highly recommends the Gastric bypass. I am just confused and I am thinking I need a second opinion. What are you guys thoughts?
Is the sleeve really right for me?

Thank you Guys. I am going to start looking at other surgeons for a second opinion.
