Oh my Kim I have just cried through reading this thread I can so relate to this your post. My boyfriend was so supportive when he thought either band or sleeve. Now the surgeon has said bypass he doesn't want me to do it. I can't decide between sleeve (my choice) or bypass (surgeons) cos I am really scared about the bypass and the rerouting of my bowel. I have actually told people that I am not doing it now (apart from him) because they all saying dont do it, although I am now on the list for bypass. Aarrgghhh I don't know what to do
What a difficult choice for you hun, I was not really given a choice by my surgeon, and it has been difficult enough making the decision for surgery in the first place.
I sat with my hubby last night and we had a really good chat, he says he will support me, but is really worried my health will suffer in the long run (think he's heard about some horror stories) I know he only said it cause he loves me, and I don't think he realised how his remark made me feel.
I know surgery is the right choice for me, I can't go through the next 20 years how I have been, and maybe once I've had the surgery and things have settled I will probably kick myself for not doing it sooner.
I wish you well on what ever you decide hun, good luck - Kim XX
