I am interested in weight loss surgery specifically gastric bypass. I know i have enough weight to lose and a slew of medical conditions. I a.m. just not sure where to start? Do i just see my pcp and tell him im interested in weight loss surgery and at least start the conversation?? I've been on Every diet in the book, I'm active always have been. I just can't seem to lose significant weight. My one concern is that i had diverticulitis a couple of years ago and had to have a bowel resection. I am nervous this will be a barrier to having any kind of weight loss surgery. Otherwise i guess I'm just wondering do u just start the conversation with ur pcp and see where it goes?
All this insurance stuff makes me nervous as well...
Any feedback would be helpful.
