Ugh...I have to wait



Recommended Posts

So my PCP said i can't have surgery until i have my kidney stone(s) removed. To be fair the largest is about the size of my thumb. But now I just fear that I will be watching the scale number creep up and will be back to square one. I was so set for the 18th of this month.

I know you're disappointed but it's for the best. Hang in there and use this time to prepare for surgery.

Don't get totally discourage. Try to find any silver linings and golden seams.

You could technically continue a modified pre op diet and lose even more weight, like Boss, prior to Surgery

Hang in there! Stay low carb and eat only to your doc's Protein prescription for you. You won't lose ground!! It's better to go into the surgery with healthy kidneys hon!!! ((hugs))

      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.
