Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 , I am in the beginning process. I have to lose weight since I am over 400 (+-). I am not discouraged and have an appointment to see my PCP on Friday. I have a binder with all the stuff from the web site to give him so he can get familiar with the surgery. I even have him copies of my contacts if he wants to contact them too. I have a call into my local bariatric Dr. to start going to them to help with the weight loss. I am working on my packet and keeping my head up high. Right now wouldn't be the right time for me to have surgery anyway, my hubby just had eye surgery, my mother just had open heart surgery and my two oldest children are leaving home (my son off leave from the Marines, and my daughter is leaving for college). I know GOD knows that I couldn't handle any more right now. When the time is right for me then I know GOD will put everything in it's place and then look out DR. R !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ******************************************************* Prayers to all that are on the other side and hope you are doing great! Prayers to all waiting to do the dance and be on the other side. GOD be with all of us! in SC If you see someone without a smile: Give them one of yours :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2000 Report Share Posted May 30, 2000 > Hi , You know you might be surprised and not even have to lose " that " much weight before you can have the surgery. I think I read that the weight limit had been raised. So after you go to your PCP and then check with Dr. R. It could happen for you before Summer is over. You sound like a very busy lady but take some time for yourself. You deserve a life free from this disease that we all have. My date is this Friday 6/2. Keep me in your prayers. Good Luck!!!
