Plastics Appointment
Well, had my appointment yesterday and came back disappointed.
Mr Armstrong said he wanted me to go back to him in 6 months and hopefully I will have lost more weight, about 5st and then he will do the op. He said it was safer for me that way as I still have fat in my tummy and therefore lots of large blood vessels which would cause heavy bleeding and he wants me to be completely safe. Bit disheartening. Mum said she could fully understand where he was coming from and to trust him.
He took lots of photos of my tummy, front, side and rear views of my body, plus the sore I conveniently had under one side and the clear side.
On another note, he has offered to come and talk to us at the Berks group as Neil did at Woking to give another perspective. He knows Neil well and is clinical lead in his field in Berkshire.
