Surgery type changed ...

Sep 15, 2013

So, I spoke with my surgeon 9/10/13 and was very impressed by his knowledge, caring and insight. He spoke with me about the pros and cons of RNY - I'd originally wanted the sleeve but TriCare won't cover that surgery. So, bottom line, I'm not having RNY. If everything goes well, I'll have VSG in January - if not, I don't know when it will be done. I may have to wait another six months to a year. I will be absolutely devastated if it takes that long, but I have to be realistic too. I'm really sad right now. I'd thought I'd be on the bench in a couple of weeks ... now it's going to be months again. I am so flipping confused right now. I feel like I've made the right decision, but I was so ready to have this over and start my WLS journey. With my family history, VSG is way better for me, so I know this is the right decision. But, I'm still sad
