I agree u need to think of ur after care' date=' this office sound very irresponsible. Maybe you should speak with the director or office Manager to see can you get some answers. Did u research this surgeons background.[/quote']

To be honest no I didn't research him I was referred to him by my PCP I read a couple of things on him on their website it's him a 3 other doctors that does the surgery and specialize in others things but now I'm going to look into what I need to do to change

I am glad you got to speak to someone. At this point I would have spoke to the janitor to get through LOL. Hopefully all will get taken care of fast and hopefully they can earn your trust.

Sometimes we have to do things we are reluctant to do, are the other doctor in the same office.

Yes very easy fix!!! Go to your surgeons psychologist and do her psych evaluation and let them resubmit!!!

Once you get in to see the psych and she writes up her report your advocate can resubmit. Shouldn't take months unless the psych us booked up like mine was and took me a couple months to get an appointment. I go October 3rd for my psych evaluation which takes all day about 5 hours. Suppose to take some kind of test then will talk to her. Then she grades the test and writes out her evaluation which can take a day or two for her to do

this psych has a website where you have to watch about 8 videos and fill out everything online so when you see her it's in and out

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
