Hi Lori,

I am confused. Did you have to go on disability since you had WLS? What happened

that you are disabled? That's a bummer. Hope things improve for you and you can

get back to work etc.

Shortly after I got approved for the surgery and getting my surgery date,

I ended up in the hospital with congestive heart failure and chronic

obstructive pulmonary disease. To complicate things, I also had severe

sleep apnea, out of control diabetes, diabetic sores that were not

healing, hyperthyroidism, elevated cholesterol, and I am sure I forgot

something. Because of the congestive heart failure and COPD, I was also

wheelchair bound. I attempted to go back to work after having surgery

and didn't last but about a week. Finally contacted the disability

office and was approved for SSD in 75 days. I had always told myself

that WLS was a last resort. Unfortunately, I had almost waited to long.

I forgot to ask for you to pray for my doctors.  Dr. Tucker and Dr. Bauer.  I

gave them some papers to fill out and sign for my disability.  I really need

them to do that so I won't lose my insurance.

Thanks So Much, Sharon
