I posted first way back in March, 2013. I went to a doctor, finally, was diagnosed with thyroid issues, HBP, severe obstructive sleep apnea. I was feeling like I was going to die and was not really living. I was scared beyond belief. I was put on HBP medication, thyroid meds and began talking to my doctor about WLS. I began the process in September and was sleeved two weeks ago on Jan 13th. Tomorrow, I see my doc for my two week check. It is a process, but I feel like I finally am getting a grip on my life and have a chance of living. My surgery went very well, took two weeks off work, as the first week I was sore, nausea, and tired. The second week was resting, taking stock and learning all I could about how my new relationship with food was going to look. So far, no regrets, anxious to see how much I have lost, as I can definitely feel some difference. Hoping to end HBP meds and snoring already reduced. Thyroid, stuck with that but I can deal with that one!
