A1C Level To High For Surgery
TheNewSusie replied to Mslnzee2010's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When I had my surgery my doctor told me that it doesn't matter what my A1c was because the sleeve will make it better, but I do know that it is very hard to heal quicker if ur A1c is too high. I've been type one for 15 years -

So I woke up in pain guys, ugh, why me?? Earlier appointment was for Thursday morning and I'm sipping on hot tea right, the only thing I can take down without pain. I'm supposed to work today but I dunno of I can. I can't keep calling in and can't get a docs note until Thursday, I think I'll just go in, show them I'm sick, then leave, atleast I'll make an effort, ;/. You all have a good day! Keep up the great job all of u on ur preops. God bless. -

He does go to his website: Endobariatric.com I tried financing an although I got approved I got denied because he wasn't a US licensed surgeon, so I saved up all my money and did it on my own, which I'm very happy of because I don't have all that interest to pay now.

It's ok, I fell asleep too. Took all those meds, lol. Yeah I still have a fever ;/. I think I caught it from my nephew who I just found out has an ear infection and a fever, my sis who is visiting from out of town took him to the ER this morning and found out. I knew it was something rare. -
What's funny is I'm the type that hasn't had a fever in like 10 years, no joke. Weird how all of a sudden I got one...

Dr. A told me to take liquid Tylenol last night and so I did. I know I don't have a leak, no pain or anything, just a mild fever. I'm able to take down fluids and I can walk around. I asked him if I should go to the ER and waiting on his response. I'll let u know what he says. -
