HI there, I'm Rhainy. Just went to the "Seminar" portion of becoming my chosen surgeon's patient...
I really like him...except, right now he is steering me toward a straight sleeve, rather than a D/S... I know there are other surgeons but I really like this doc so far and his staff has been fabulous.
*Sighs*
Malnutrition was one of his concerns...
He didn't say he would not do it, but wanted to see if the sleeve worked before committing to the switch portion of the surgery...he didn't say no...but, the suggestion was sleeve first.
Since my primary insurance has a weightloss exclusion, I am having to go with my Medicare...a lot of surgeons don't take Medicare. I have bad credit, so loans are out, and I am on SSDI so paying cash is out too.
So still trying to figure out what on earth I am going to do...
