I know all patients and doctors are differenced, as well as requirements. but how long from your initial revision appt. until u were on the operating table?
I have had WLS X 2 now. My first surgery was self pay and it was 12 days from my very first appointment to my op day. The second surgery was insurance pay and it was almost 5 months from doc to op day.
I guess I got lucky but it was 8 days for me. My surgeon decided it was medically necessary to lengthen my common channel because of the constant diarrhea (I was in misery). I'm not complaining.
