Over Problems! Pray For Me Today.



Recommended Posts

I initially went to my primary Dr about two months ago.he talked me out of surgery while in his office. The moment I walked out I burst into years because I knee I wanted this surgery. I called the office and told them I am moving forward. I need a letter signed by him and my chatted weight. They jerked me around for a month. Today the receptionist tells me that doc doesn't think its the best option for me and that he doesn't see why he had to sign of f that these surgeon should. I was irate. I am going in today to plead with him at 4. I would appreciate any good vibes or prayers or pleasant thoughts my way. I don't know what I am going too do. I want another baby and I won't be able to get pregnant without it. I have pcos and probably sleep apnea according to my test. I need this.

If your doc won't help, get your records from them and find a doc who will. This isn't his decision. It is yours. If they won't support it, then find someone who will.

When it comes to this surgery you will know better then the doc if it's what you want and what you need.

Just a side note they say you shouldn't get pregnant until you are a year out of surgery.

Fingers crossed your doc will help on this journey. If not, there are plenty who will.

I agree and find a new doctor!! My primary doctor didn't think I "needed" it as well. I also have PCOS and asked my endo for a referral. The doctor I have now specializes in PCOS and agrees 100% that this is the right thing to do. I was told that the sleeve will change my body chemistry. In particular the hormone that gives u cravings. Finding the right doctor makes all the difference in the world!! Good luck and stay strong. I'm here if u want to talk. <3

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
