Hi all, thanks for accepting me, I’m a 49 year old Male, I’ve just been accepted to surgery( not sure which option yet) had bloods done etc so very early !, probably 1st step!, so I’ve got some questions I’d get advise on that I’m worried about? basically I’ve had a **** ! 6 months, prior to being accepted I had my gulbladder removed and developed pancreases!, I was discharged only to be readmitted 1 week later with pneumonia, 1 week later discharged,,, 4 days later back in with infection that made pneumonia return!!, was in for 2 weeks then discharged again!!,, 3 days later still shortness of breath,, in and out of hospital for well until now really!!, inbetween all this I had my 1st chat with weight loss surgery team at Whittington hosp!, I’ve got my tier 3 plan etc but they are doing all the tests north mid are doing!, for shortness of breath, so I’m worried that if they find something doing the gut test etc would they stop going forward with the surgery or will they give me time to get back to health?, ,, sorry it’s a bit long winded but it’s taken me 2 years to get this far , I don’t think I could stand being told they will not go ahead with it , Martin x

I’ve just googled this and I’ll certainly ask questions this week about the possibility of it,.. I’m convinced something happened during my gulbladder removal, they put stents in prior and they had to stop as there was an obstruction!, I’ve not been the same since !, but I guess that’s me just being paranoid!

Thank you all for replies so far, up until 6-7 months ago I was health free( apart from the liking of buns!!) I played sport, had/ have a manual 12 hour day job etc. Then I had gullstones!!,since that operation I’ve been out of breath and developed bad reflux!, I’ve had every test regarding my lungs, my bloods are fine, my heart is fine.... but I can’t walk 100 yards without getting out of breath!, the thing is both hospital are doing the same tests, I don’t want cross complications and misunderstandings from both teams!, I’ve got my 1st group talk this Thursday and I’ve got the results of my 2ct scan on Friday so I’ll be asking lots of questions by the end of the week!, thanks again for all your help!, Martin
