My doc does not think that anything is wrong so he will not order tests

I am 8 months out (9-7) and have not lost anything in about 6 weeks. I have recently gained 5 pounds and it is not coming off. My doctor says that I have to stop eating so much. Wasn't that the point of this surgery, to curve my appetite? I have been able to eat "normal" size portions comfortably since about 2 months out. I need to know if something is wrong with the mechanics. I have tried to eat "the amount post rny'ers are suppposed to eat" and almost pass out throughout the day from low blood sugar. I lost my insurance but am now on medicaid. I really do not know what to do. Can anyone give me some advice on switching doctors? I thought my starting weight was 286 but according to my chart it was 274. That means that I have lost 65 pounds in 8 months. I think that is crazy slow considereing I exercise, eat protein first and get in my water. Sorry for ramblimg I am just so afraid that I have gone thru this to remain heavy. Another "possible" problem is that now my BMI is 35.9, but I still have type II diabetes so do you think I even qualify for a repair/revision? Thanks for listening any input is appreciated. Reace P.S. What I am struggling with is not "head hunger" it is the real thing. Thanks
