It was about getting a gastric sleeve redone since I am having so many issues. Surgeon was hesitant on doing it (said it would be hard for the both of us) but is at least willing to help me. (Refuse to go to initial surgeon over her leaving a broken surgical drain in me and the surgeon here refused return calls).
I meet with the dietician next month and had labs yesterday. Also have to get a couple tests done but waiting on insurance.
I hate I am having to drive an hour each way but gotta do what I gotta do.

I am glad you've been able to get a second opinion. I hope it all works out well for you this time.

Do what you need to do to be healthy!
Our doctors are an hour one way. DH had to go for radiation on brain tumors and it was 90 min one way for a TEN MINUTE appointment!

just curious, why are you considering having the sleeve redone and not a conversion to bypass? i had the sleeve. usually when people in my support groups have sleeves that go wrong, they convert to bypass.

I will ask surgeon next time I see him. I had the bypass checked on my paper work but he only mentioned the revision. |
