Thyroid cancer and Gastric sleeve surgery
Jan 06, 2016
Hi all. I need some advice. I was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer 2/2015. Had TT and RAI and the oncologist has discharged me. All levels are suppressed as they should be per my endocrinologist. I have contacted the local bariatric Dr. and he has said I need to be 2-3 years cancer free before he will consider sleeve surgery for me. Has anyone else had to deal with this? Has anyone had the surgery without having to wait that long? I am so frustrated and really thought I had my answer. Thanks, Patty
