Topic: Sad
I am really realy fustrated and sad. In May I was told that I would be having my surgery in August. A date was even set. But the I had then yesterday I had to go to the hospital for this little appointment. They preceded to tell me that as of August 1st anyone having a gastric bypass must go to several appointments that may take up to six months to do. They just changed how things went out of nowhere. So, if by August 15th I have not been able to go to all of the appointments that I am requiered to do now because they are full, my surgery will be pushed back. That is so not far becuase if they were going to change it like this I could have done all of these appointments in the nearly 2 years that I was waiting to have the surgery. I am sad and things feel so hopeless now....
Topic: RE: MY TEEN IS OBESE: MAY I HAVE SOME INFORMATION?
Hey Monica... I was 18 when I had the Lap-Band and my surgeon was eager to do it. If you think about it, its good publicity for them. Starting on teenagers when they are young is kind of like trial and error. Figure out what works and how they can learn from it. Although, I do know of a surgeon that does the band in Mexico and he started on a few kids when they were 11 years old. Ironically, this kid is now a pro basketball player. I will try and find his name for you....
