Can you have an RNY if you are 500lbs. or over?

The surgeons haven't made a decision yet. They haven't operated on people that weigh over 350-400lbs. Can you have the surgery (RNY) at 500lbs? My PCP approved me & my psycholgst did as well. I am just afraid they won't do the surgery. I have co-commorbties (3-4 of them!) I have dieted a million times! What can I do?
