Guest guest Posted September 17, 2000 Report Share Posted September 17, 2000 Hi I have reading a lot about the mgb and am so excited about this. I am so tired of being fat. It is a struggle to walk. I am jumping in and have alrady contactd my pcp, I am expecting an isnurance battle since morbid weight loss and gastric surgery are specifically excluded, but i may have a chance since i have really serious arthritis I am kind of depressed since i have been on crutches these past few days.. .. my pcp put me on paxil, but have just started to take it he wants to see if i will lose any weight with it.. so i go back in 3 weeks... maybe sooner.. i have to get my files from the office so i can co-ordinate the drug/diets and the length of time i have been working at weight loss.... It gives me great hope to read all the fantastic stories of dancing with the doctor and the fact that most people have very few complications... i hope to send the online form soon my pcp has a copy of the whole patient manual which i downloaded and gave to him this last bout of arthritis flare-up or whatever was the last straw.. i have to get a mammogram...i hope that 6 months or so is recvent enough for the pap smear.. anyways this site is great and anyonw who would put me on their prayer list i would appreciate greatly!!! Thanks Suzanne in Flagler Beach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
