dalistone got a reaction from NewBeginningsForMe2012 in Where are the 50s ???
Yay! Other 50 plus people. I even started a group called Silver Sleevers trying to find others my age. My name is Linda and I have been trying to have WLS since 2008. I was going for the lap band but then the sleeve was advertised and I said that's for me! I received my insurance approval two weeks ago. The doctors office says the next step is that the scheduler will call me. Oh, the stress of waiting!

dalistone got a reaction from setterling in Looking for buddy in Kansas City!
Dr Fearing joined Dr Malley less than a year ago. She is supposed to be the one who does the sleeve but they said they do them together. Dr Fearing is very nice.

dalistone reacted to CowgirlJane in friggin p'd off! STUPID STUPID STUPID DOCTOR WHY DO THEY EXIST?????
My PCP had not heard of the gastric sleeve either.
She was fairly anti-WLS previously, but has recently changed her mind. Her reason? She has had several patients in the 40-60 age range, that were 100+ pounds overweight just up and DIE in their sleep. She tells me that being so overweight, and being middle aged is a deadly combination. She would prefer that I lose weight without WLS, but, most importantly is to get the weight OFF.
