Dr wants a tubal instead of bisalp
So I had my consultation with my doctor about month ago and we had a very long discussion on what I wanted, specifically a total bisalp. At that time, he was agreeable to completely removing both tubes and said I understood the risk of regret and could make my decision.
My surgery is scheduled for the 26th and I had my preop appointment with the doctor two days ago. While in this appointment, he was explaining what would he would be doing. During this he kept saying that he’d take part of the tube. I interrupted him and said that I don’t want a partial or a tubal, I want both tubes completely removed. He reminded me that this is 100% not reversible. I’m 27 and one of the big things we talked about was how I’ve been asking to be sterilized since I was 18, so I told him reversing it is never something I’m worried about.
The doctor said to remind him on the day of surgery, which both my partner and I will be doing repeatedly. Thankfully I also work in the same hospital organization, so I know exactly who to contact if he pushes back about it but it’s just been bothering me a little bit since I tend to overthink things.
Has anyone else had a doctor try to change to a tubal instead of bisalp right before the actual surgery date?
