A pain specialist recommended (among other things) getting bariatric surgery. This definitely threw me for a loop because while I have well-controlled diabetes (type 2) and I’m not skinny, I didn’t think that would seem medically necessary. I’ve been in a fairly decent place with myself as far as body image goes, but the suggestion does pull trigger some past eating disorder thoughts. I have no idea whether to genuinely consider this recommendation or not. Any thoughts/similar experiences?
