Thanks for your reply ???? I was wondering if something had gone wrong and started to wonder if it had all been worth it to be honest! Good to know it's not just me. Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

Can't tell you how excited and relieved I am to have found a UK forum ???????? It seems that the US guidelines post op vary somewhat than those in the UK? Anyhow, i had sleeve gastrectomy on 3rd December and so far so good! Back to work 1 week post op and have more energy than ever. Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App

Hiya I live in the UK too, Lancashire. I was first referred to weight management 4 years ago by the NHS. Then finally after 2 years I was referred to the bariatric dept and chose Salford Royal in Manchester. From the first appointment with them to surgery date it was 2 years. I had my surgery on 3rd December 2016 and gotta say the care I had on the NHS was excellent. My advice is to push your GP to refer you and if you fully comply with your specialist at your chosen hospital and show that you're ready for a new lifestyle they'll do your surgery Sent from my SM-G900F using the BariatricPal App
