I'm headed in to my Family doc to see if I can talk with him to get some more info from him. I LOVE my doc however I am fairly annoyed with his lack of notes on this. We have been talking for 3 ish years about my weight we have tried different meds and different diets and some would work and some would not but they never worked for long. I'm just annoyed that out of 3 years he had 2 appointments that he submitted to my surgeon.

Put your foot down and be proactive! There are enough irritating hoops to jump through once you actually have PCP support, from insurance, surgeon, psych, etc...this should not even be a major opening act. Say you want it and that you've made a decision. I hope this advice is not belated or moot by now!

Thanks for this. It makes me not feel bad for getting upset with my doc yesterday. I did put my foot down and was extremely honest with him. I told him I was upset at the way that he had documented our appointments.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
