Looks Like I Will Have To Join The Nov Sleevers Now



Recommended Posts

Hi, i was supposed to be having my sleeve tomorrow, but due to a blood problem will probably be in november now, was really dissapointed, but a month is not that long compared with the 22 months i have already waited.

Anyway, just wanted to wish all the october sleevers best wishes and pray that everything goes well for you, and look forward to reading your success stories soon, :) x

Ah, I am so sorry your surgery has been delayed. But I know it is for a good reason. At least you are not denied...only delayed. Chin up. A new you is around the corner.

Thank you, this is a very testing time, I had a call this morning to say that the results of my blood test could take 6 weeks, I was in despair, but turned to my bible and found comfort and the strength to continue to Trust in God and as u said, it is a delay and not a cancellation, I don't understand why, but trust that God will work everything together for my good, and it is great to have the support of fellow sleevers, :-)

Only 5 days since the blood test and I am finding the waiting difficult , I have had a few cheats but have done well today with the liver shrinking diet, and I am down a dress size, most of my clothes are too big for me now, but it has been 23 months since my first appointment for the surgery, I have gone from a 34 to 28 and am really pleased that I am no longer in the size 34's. Trouble is I have one pair of trousers that fits me and am not wanting to buy any more, but will soon be into 26 's If i carry on like this, and I have a few more clothes in that size from when I lost weight last time.

People have begun to say that I don't need the operation now, but they don't understand the struggle I have had with keeping it off in the past, I am determined to wait it out and get my sleeve. I have been open and honest with my friends and family about having the sleeve and a lot of them are not happy with me, but I know my own mind and after reading all the positive stories on here am even more sure that the sleeve is so right for me.

Keep on eating right to get to your promised land, I know I am, x

thank you, really hoping it will be Nov, the 12th is my birthday, and the 22nd is my 38th wedding anniversary, so Nov is already a good month for me, here's hoping, :-) x

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
