Guest guest Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 My name is i'm 29 years old, 5'9, and weigh 278lbs. I have been on here for awhile but just never said anything just read what everybody else has said about the surgery. I haven't always been heavy i was 154lbs. in 1995. Then i got married a year later in 1996 to a wonderful man, had a child in 1999, and got into a car accident in April of 2000. It was such a bad accident it messed up my back for life. I now have Degenerative Disk Diease which limits to what i can do as far as keeping the weight off. Then a last year i was dignosed with a thyroid diease, so that kept putting on the weight, and of course eating which i love to do. I have a Dr. apt. Monday to discuess getting GBS i called my insurance they said it was covered 100% which i thought was great.... Anyway i have read alot about the GBS and there is alot of risks involved like death.... which really scares me. I have such a loving and caring husband and a wonderful daughter and lots of family. I'm afraid it will go wrong and something would happen.. If anyone has any advise for me plaese feel free to email me.. God Bless... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
