[color=#ee82ee][size=5][font='trebuchet ms']I am a stage 3C colon cancer survivor whom also suffers from hypothyroidism. I'm hoping that with the VSG it will curb my appetite for sugars which is one of the top things cancers feed off of. I hope to live another 40 years. I would love to hear from other survivors because it gives me hope. Actually, I would love to hear from anyone (lol). I started this journey with the hopes of getting the lapband, but after researching it against vsg, I pretty much decided to go with the sleeve and cannot wait.[/font][/size][/color]
