| NHS will not remove saggy skin of man |
| |
A man continues to be refused an NHS operation to remove his excess skin after bariatric surgery -despite Super Slim Bomb
being so depressed he's attempted to kill himself four times.
'The excess skin chafes, I recieve sores and have to use creams to soothe them.
'It gets in the way after i want to visit the toilet, sometimes I lose my testicles within all of the skin, it is that bad.'
Inside a letter to Mr Thorn following his appeal against their decision, the Aylesbury Vale Clinical Commissioning Group said Mr Thorn was physically healthy plus they therefore didn't think fit to alter the prior decision to not fund the operation to get rid of his excess skin.
Despite Mr Thorn's claims surgery to get rid of his excess skin would prevent him from attempting to take his own life i was told that a credit card applicatoin for surgery based on preventing suicide wasn't one they could accept.
They added they couldn't demonstrate further surgery would improve his mental health, wellbeing social integration or improved self-image.
The letter went on to cite a previous diagnosis of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) and approved a referral for Mr Thorn to determine a psychiatrist who specialises in BDD.
But Mr Thorn said he was unhappy with their decision because it didn't take new evidence into consideration including a recent examination from psychiatrist Dr Jessica Gibson from Aylesbury Vale Mental Health Services, who said in her opinion he didn't meet the requirements for BDD.
In a letter to Mr Thorn and the GP, Dr Gibson wrote: 'Having examined Paul's excess skin today, i believe that Paul doesn't have Body Dysmorphic Disorder.
'There is apparent proof of excessive skin on his arms, hip and buttock regions and pubic area.
'These have a significant impact on his self-esteem, confidence and more importantly his function.
'He needs to lift the excess skin within the pubic region to be able to urinate. He believes it'll prevent him from through an relationship having a woman.
'I therefore don't believe that there is an imagined defect to look at.'
Mr Thorn said, he wishes he can afford the process himself but his confidence is so low he's not able to find work with no longer knows where to turn.
He explained: 'They have cited my mental health insurance and suicide attempts as a reason not to fund the operation but it's the excess skin and also the fight to get it removed which is causing the depression.
'Having this excess skin leaves me without any confidence, I feel too embarrassed to go out or meet anyone.
'If I had your skin removed I'd have the confidence to visit to work and maybe meet a girlfriend.
'Without it I could live my life again. I'd rather not lose my thirties like I've my twenties - fighting for this skin to become removed.
'If I had been given funding for that operation I could go on to live a great life but until then I am suffering and will keep on suffering throughout my life.'
A spokesperson for Aylesbury Vale CCG said: 'The CCG understands this case, but we don't discuss individual details.
'We can advise however, that aesthetic surgery for that removal of redundant skin after weight reduction Fruta Planta Reduce Weight programmes or wls won't normally be funded.'
Aylesbury Vale Adult Mental Health Services added they couldn't comment on individual cases because it would breach patient confidentiality.
