Have already applied twice since 2010 (first got turned down as I don't have severe sleep apnoea or type 2 diabetes, second because I haven't followed a strict diet plan)
Since the last application I tried Cambridge diet and lost 2 stone but couldn't afford to continue and put the weight back on, I'm now seeing a dietician at the hospital but they just told me to eat more and they were pretty pants.
I'm 19 stone and 5'6 and I have hypermobility syndrome and live on pain medication and my mobility is poor. I nee this op so bad, if they turn me down I don't know what il do :,(
I've already been down to London to meet the surgeon (before I got turned down first time) he agreed I should have the bypass but can't obviously go ahead without the funding.
I'm in Suffolk, Ive made an appointment to see my GP on the 28th to tell him I Want to reapply.
Is there any advice/tips to help me get the funding? I'm desperate and I don't have anyone to talk to.
