Scared of a denial

I wanted to find out if you can have GI issues and still qualify for a bypass or sleeve?My stomach digest slow for the first hour and after that my food digest fine.But I'm scared when I meet my surgeon they will say I can't do should I be freaking out or still think positive about it ?My GI Doctor got me feeling like this because he said it may be an issue .But you can have congestive heart failure and still qualify.

@@shaylady08 What is your diagnosis? The only one who can tell you whether surgery is possible will be the surgeon. They most likely will do testing to determine any problems/issues - and many can be resolved before surgery or corrected with surgery (depending on the issue).

No diagnosis really that is it .Just the delay for that one hour it's not enough for it to be gastroparesis so the only thing is the delay .I wish I knew a surgeon I can ask because I'm stressing over this .
