Question:
will a thyroid level of 4.7 make a surgeon not want to do this

I just found out my thyroid levels are not normal and always have been. I weigh 340 and my height is 5'3' and I have all my appointments set for pre op stuff. Would a surgeon decide not to do this surgery because of a thyroid level of 4.7? My primary doc is going to treat this thyroid thing and Im now discouraged that I may not be able to ge t the surgery and it was such a hard decision to come to.    — Shay B.
