WHAT TO DO???
Apr 08, 2009
I have been seeing my doctor now for about 7 or 8 months now. I have been trying several methods of weight loss with no prevail. I just can't seem to loose any weight, right now my BMI is 42! If I do I gain it right back. I have Fibromyalgia and high blood pressure and the extra weight is taking a toll on me. My doctor told me I needed to try to loose weight for 6 months before she could refer me to a surgeon. Well it has been 7 or 8 months now and she still wont refer me. I left her office today in tears! It is embarrassing to go there week after week and not have lost any weight when I am trying my hardest! I really feel like she don't want to help me. I have no clue what to do! I emailed The University Of Iowa City Hospital and Clinics right when I got home, I am so frustrated! My Husband is totally supportive as long as I want to go threw with the surgery. I know he loves me either way. He was there today with me and he even said "What is her problem?" He said "Kim you need to find a new doctor who takes their time to listen to you. She really acted like you were a liar or something and she seemed like she has no interest in you". Auughhh ANY help form ANYONE would be a great!
