Bummed & Angry about denial
Deanne, Let me give you a few words of advice (as my sister did for me-she was the person in my life that could see that I was killing myself, so she did a lot of investigating of what WLS was and sent it on to me) her words....... "Kel......you need to pig out. My life has always been this way.......large........if the dr was having difficulty seeing that then I needed to make it a bit more appearant. Well......I have passed the words of wisdom on to you-from my sister of course. Take em or leave em.... I won't be offended. I do wish you the best of luck.
I totally understand what you are saying. Dr. Schlesinger and I talked about that in October at the OH convention. I asked him if I needed to gain weight and he said yes, but I don't want you too. He was concerned that my BMI was not 40. When I saw him a month ago, he told me there was enough medica necessity, with the enlarged stoma. So, I am hoping that I can get it done. I am going to hire the lawyer and she what can happen with that. Deanne
