Guest guest Posted February 22, 2004 Report Share Posted February 22, 2004 Hi my name is . I am 26 years old and in the process of being approved for RNY. I live in Indiana and will be having OPEN RNY by Dr Dana in Frnaklin, IN. I have been obese since I was 8. I have been trying to get approved since June of last year. My husbands company expanded twice last year, so in Jan 04 we switched insurance companies and I had to begin the approval process over again. I currently weigh 392.6 and have weighed that since January of 2003. My weight is causing major health problems. Recently I have been limited in my driving because of the imense pain I have in my knees and may be using a cane soon. This on top of being Type 2 diabetic and having shortness of breath is causing my quality of life to be very low. Also, I am currently unable to work because I can't stand or walk very long/far. I don't mean to sound so negative. I am blessed with a wonderful husband of 7 years. He is very supportive of my WLS journey and of me in general. I hope to have surgery soon so we can begin a family in the future. I am excited about getting to know some of you. Have a great day!
