Titaniumsleeved2014 42 Posted September 12, 2015 What do you do when your health conditions are getting worst no matter what you do the doctors sounds aren't helping and you just don't want to get out of bed anymore... No relief from the GERDS, the diabetes and no weight loss..... At this point I give up I'm tired of trying the meds not helping I'm up to 4 shots of Humalog insulin one shot of victoza 1000mg if Metformin, Reglan 4 times a day, liquid carafate 4 times a day, omerpazole, Promethazine for the nausea and vomiting not to mention my blood pressure meds ugh I really regret having the sleeve and I'm still having all these problems that was suppose to get better and the acid reflux is worst than it was before I had the sleeve......

Elode 8,093 Posted September 13, 2015 @@Titaniumsleeved2014 What you could do is find another Dr. If you're not getting the answers and help you need then find someone else. Do some research I don't know your history so I can't give you any advice like that. You need to get some help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Babbs 14,681 Posted September 13, 2015 Why haven't you lost weight? You sound like you would be a PERFECT candidate for a bypass revision. I think you really need to look into that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BLERDgirl 6,417 Posted October 18, 2015 Just saw you post on the other thread. PLEASE do not give up seeking a revision. No one deserves to be miserable and in pain. It may be a 4 hour trip but that's nothing compared to a life time of being uncomfortable. If I was you, once I was done setting things up with the new surgeon I would then report the old doctor. Your revision should be on his priority list since it means you were an unsuccessful sleeve and a negative reflection on his skills as a surgeon. I realize there are no guarantees, but he should be making every attempt to make sure things work out for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
