    Thank you for your video. I am having the bypass surgery next month and my husband is having doubts about. Your video gives lots of information about what qualifies 1 for surgery and answers many questions about it.😊

      I hope you did well and your journey is successful. ❤ My cousin had surgery a few days ago and I was a nervous Nelly like your husband. She's in lots of pain but I'm hopeful for her and bringing her lots of popsicles.

      Hi ! How was the surgery? I am looking him up , I was about to travel outside the country because I thought in US you had to be over BMI of 35, but he says that the minimum is 29 and My Bmi is 32 so I think I am a candidate

    Hi, you mentioned coagulation issues when touching on what might exclude someone from getting this surgery. Can you please elaborate? Specifically I am wondering if me being on Apixaban (anti-coagulation) meds for a clotting issue I have life-long (protein S deficiency).

    Hello doctor, does the sleep heart rate dip to a range of 40-50 beats per minute after gastric sleeve? is this indicator for bradycardia? In the resting state, heart beat is around 55-60 and during workout, it touches 140 beats and it comes down when rested for few mins

    Does Medicaid pay for bariatric surgery. I'm over the BMI at 40.1. also I do lumber stenosis and I'm inconsistent. Is it best to have bariatric surgery or have back surgery first? Please Help!

    • @lucyinthesky4682
      @lucyinthesky4682 Рік тому +1

      Usually easier to get approved for bariatric surgery than back surgery. I had to have a Nissen fundoplication for severe GERD and it requires some of the diet restrictions of gastric bypass and it was really hard. I don't eat processed sugar or fast food. Maybe a rare cheeseburger now and again so I wasn't worried about craving food. However the continued liquid died for weeks was incredibly hard. I didn't cry but I was incredibly close.
      My cousin just had gastric bypass and regrets it because of the pain and she has to take injections to prevent blood clots.
      If you have straight Medicaid and not another insurance you may get back surgery easily. Usually it's a battle. You'd be better off losing weight and getting back surgery to prevent further issues.
      I'm a lawyer but I also do pro bono work for people on legal aid so I've learned a lot about medical insurance.
      I'm telling you all this just so you do all the research. This guy is great but a lot of doctors push for you to have surgery cause it's a great money maker. The doctors taking Medicaid are looking for you to meet a requirement and then you have surgery. It's safer now than before but SO many people have it now.

    The sleeve is mentioned way more in these questions and gastric bypass is overlooked somewhat.

    I did sleve surgery in 2018, but I gained all the weight back. ND I still eat small amounts. What
    should I do .

      Never fall for shortcuts again

    • @lucyinthesky4682
      @lucyinthesky4682 Рік тому

      It's not about small amounts, it's about calories and exercise. You can eat a pint of ice cream 6 times of day and that's 6000 calories. Good addiction is just like any addiction. It's a lifestyle change. You should seek therapy. I'm being serious. My cousin just had surgery, and I suffer from anorexia. Don't listen to people talking about shortcuts, it's just that you weren't prepared. And so many programs don't properly prepare people. This is for life, not just to drop initially.

      Please look up Dr. Matthew Weiner here on UA-cam. He discusses this often. Weight regain is real with the sleeve, even with "perfect" diets. Nowadays meds are paired with sleeves (you'll have to take it forever) to maintain weight loss. Bypass usually has more success with weight loss maintenance.
