Hi
I wrote a threat before about when i visites my GP and he had told me that NHS does not fund weight loss surgery anylonger.
I then booked another appointment with another GP and he told me that i dont fulfill the criteria for the band as my BMI is 43 but needs to be 45. He advised me to go for a weight management program under the NHS and referred ne to them.
Has anyone been in that situation before? Will the NHS then tell me if i qualify for the gastric band or not depending on how my progress will be?
How long will i need to wait for the NHS to start the program with me?
Xx
