Saw the hematologist today after being told I have to cancel due to severe anemia. I am having lots of blood tests done. If they all come back normal and only show iron malabsorption deficiency then I will receive 3 iron iv infusions and if I'm normal by Wednesday I will be cleared for surgery on the 20th!!!! If bloodwork shows any abnormality Monday then the deal is off. Please pray everything comes back normal and I can finish this journey as planned and begin my new life healthy and well.

Oh I hope things work out for you. I can only imagine the heartbreak you had to endure when they told you it would be canceled. I will say prayers and send well wishes that all goes positively. Keep your head up...

Sending you bright green energy!!! Take some time and meditate and SEE yourself getting the surgery...go inside and imagine your body creating your blood platelets and try aligning your chi. Try "you tube" for meditation and breathing examples.

Awwww. God Bless you!! I pray everything works out well. Keep us updated with your progress!

Sending prayers up now!

so sorry you are having these problems with your date of WLS - hopefully things will go well and the surgery will be 7/20 as planned.

you probably have been heavy for many years,(is it ok to say that?) so having to wait a month or so to solve a medical problem is a good choice per dr.

you will get the WLS sooner than later - but saying that doesn't help you, sorry

you are have malabsorption problems now before WLS

Gastric Bypass has many problems with absorption.

The SLEEVE has no malabsorption problems

this is just one more reason that the sleeve is the way to go for WLS

good luck in your journey towards sleeve
