Does anyone feel pressured by surgeon to have the bypass (instead of sleeve)

He said the rny was more evasive. And that it took longer I could gain my weight back and I could be sicker than getting the sleeve -

Thank you so much . I'm 5'2 close to 300 pounds I feel like I have a lot to loose. I'm just scared.lol. I don't want to get sick and I was told bypass is the worst. I researched sleeve for 5 months never thought about bypass till a doctor told me more and more people are upset with their results from the sleeve and the bypass weight lose is more and there is more research on it being as though the sleeve is a new surgery. -
I am going to my first appointment on the 8 to start the program. I was told to learn about both procedures so I can make a choice can someone please give me advice and why the bypass may be better. Thanks

I'm nervous too I don't know if I should get the sleeve or bypass. Need help deciding. If any one had it. Or which one maybe better and any complications. Please let me know.

I feel like I'm obsessed as well. I called my insurance and asked them 100000 questions and made my husband watch hours of video. Kinda far away but I want mine in January so I can start the year fresh -
Hello I am thinking about getting the gastric sleeve. I wanted to know the difference between the bypass and the sleeve. I'm a little nervous. I see a GI nutritionist next week to start the process then I will find out how many classes I have to take before the actual surgery. Can any one give me advise or things I should know?
