7 days and counting

May 11, 2009

Well one week from tomorrow I will become a new person, someone with new insides. I will be getting my DS. That is, if the the financial stuff can be worked out. That is another blog. I would rather talk of the positive, me finally getting my DS. It has been a long time coming, just about two years since I found out what the DS is and I wanted it from the beginning. I am so sorry myRnY did not work for me. If only I had known about the DS from the get-go. I did not and had to suffer through the pain of gaining weight, diabetes back, sleep apnea just as bad as ever. I wonder will I ever get a good night's rest. l pray a lot by myself and pray that I do not screw up this surgery, that I do not sabotage it and that it works for me. I will make it work. Dr. Keshishian said it is not my fault that the RNY did not work and I should not blame myself. lIt is just that some surgeries are not right for some people. I made a poor choice, but no one told me about the DS. I think all bariatric surgeons should tell their patients about ALL the choices, not just what they do, dontcha think?  And then we can make an informed decision. I wish more surgeons were doing the DS.  Maybe some day.
