Hello! New here and going through my pre-op phase. I’ve had 2 appts thus far and they are the monthly requirements from my insurance. If all goes accordingly I will have my surgery date by May 2022. I’ve researched my options and the PA I spoke with at my last appt suggested either VSG or the Loop DS. She stated it’s entirely my choice and of course the approval from insurance, but I’m having such a hard time deciding. I’ve made a list , pros and cons, and while the Loop DS is more what I’m leaning towards, the effects are what worry me the most. I’m take meds daily and hold my self accountable for them so I don’t worry to much about being on top of vitamin intake. I just want to make the right choice. I have been heavy all my life, and I’m not getting any younger. I have a bad knee that I hurt years ago, so working out has been such a challenge lately, especially after 8-12 hour days on my feet. Any suggestions, kind words, info is always welcomed and appreciated. I’ve only had this app 2 days and have learned and read so much helpful info. Can’t wait to continue this journey and getting another chance on a better life!!
