Guest guest Posted December 19, 2002 Report Share Posted December 19, 2002 Hi, I just wanted to say how thankful I am for having this surgery. I remember when I did it, I could barely walk without extraordinary pain. I thought I was going to be confined to my house and have to go on disability. I had so many obesity releated health disorders and my body was just falling apart. I couldn't fit into the MRI machines. I was in so much physical pain. Heart disease is big in my family and my blood pressure was skyrocketing. I truly thought I was going to die soon. I still have health issues but they are nothing compared to what they were like back then on a daily basis. I can do things now and not have pain. I can walk and my chest doens't hurt. My blood pressure is normal now. I can go on and on... I chose this surgery to try to save my life and have a quality life for whatever time I have left. I know I can still develop complications and I still have a ways to go before goal. But still, this past year and a half has been a blessing to me. I just wanted to say I'm thankful. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
