Over Problems! Pray For Me Today.



Recommended Posts

I initially went to my primary Dr about two months ago.he talked me out of surgery while in his office. The moment I walked out I burst into years because I knee I wanted this surgery. I called the office and told them I am moving forward. I need a letter signed by him and my chatted weight. They jerked me around for a month. Today the receptionist tells me that doc doesn't think its the best option for me and that he doesn't see why he had to sign of f that these surgeon should. I was irate. I am going in today to plead with him at 4. I would appreciate any good vibes or prayers or pleasant thoughts my way. I don't know what I am going too do. I want another baby and I won't be able to get pregnant without it. I have pcos and probably sleep apnea according to my test. I need this.

If your doc won't help, get your records from them and find a doc who will. This isn't his decision. It is yours. If they won't support it, then find someone who will.

When it comes to this surgery you will know better then the doc if it's what you want and what you need.

Just a side note they say you shouldn't get pregnant until you are a year out of surgery.

Fingers crossed your doc will help on this journey. If not, there are plenty who will.

I agree and find a new doctor!! My primary doctor didn't think I "needed" it as well. I also have PCOS and asked my endo for a referral. The doctor I have now specializes in PCOS and agrees 100% that this is the right thing to do. I was told that the sleeve will change my body chemistry. In particular the hormone that gives u cravings. Finding the right doctor makes all the difference in the world!! Good luck and stay strong. I'm here if u want to talk. <3

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
