Hi everyone, Camille from NJ and new to this forum. So, I was supposed to have surgery on the 13th of this month but after pre testing, my sed (inflammation) rate was well above normal????. Now, my primary knows I have hidradenitis which is in fact an inflammatory skin disease....hellleerrr????...but still I had to see a rheumatologist and dermatologist just so they can tell me what I already know to get cleared. Has anyone gone through something similar? Now the new date is July 7 at Mountainside with Strom and Fresco but it's hard for me to get excited again because of the setback.

hi newbie

glad your health issues have been addressed

required to see additional docs during hoops of insurance is a drag!!

but you/we do what you must do!!!

not understanding why you can't get excited again for WLS

is it because you are afraid something else might go wrong

another postponement??

2 weeks til planned date

why not give office a call in about one week and verify that everything

is moving along/full steam ahead!!!

you have plenty to be excited about

you are about to start a new chapter and life in sleeveland

good luck

speedy recovery

kathy

      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.
