Ive considered it and even saw a surgeon about it last year. May I ask why it took 3 years for you to get to this point? Was it just a decision thing or did the doctor direct you to have some other treatments beforehand?
I was going to and may still have bariatric surgery..The reason Ive hesitated so far is I had an auto accident and have serious problems with my back.
My first roadblock was the insurance company. Rightfully so, they wanted to ensure that I had exhausted other means of successfully losing weight so for the last year I’ve been under a Dr’s care for weight loss. I’m also a cancer patient. I lost my left kidney to RCC and had a tumor on my L2 vertebrae that has been watched for 5 years now and has been completely stable. The surgeon wanted to be certain that my cancer was stable. It is and I consider myself a former cancer patient.
