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?


Haven't even seen the doc yet but I'm anxious!

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.
