hi all
my doc refered me to derby hospital only 3 weeks ago. got a letter today say should get a appt date in about 13 weeks.
so just waiting for the date to see a consultant.
I thought that was quite quick as my gp told me could be up tp 9 months.
at bottom of letter it says "IF APPT NOT NEEDED TO CANCEL" yer right just like im gonna do that. need to lose the blubber
take care Ann x
Iv'e not been banded yet still getting all info.
my ? is sometimes i feel faint :faint:if ive not eaten enough food or had enough drink during the day.
would this feeling go away when i been banded or would it b worse as wouldnt b able to eat much or drink much.
most days i drink at least 2 litres of Fluid. mostly Water or sugar free squash.
thanks Ann x
thanks 4 your replys
I don't think I have much choice as i cant even walk to then end of my road which is 1/4 mile . up until xmas i was walking at least 3 miles at a time with my 2 dogs at least 4 times a week. and i miss doing that.
until ive lost wieght they wont send me for a scan on my back. so im in the visous circle.
i have just bought a teadmill as i could manage to do that when i was using hospitial gym.
thanks Ann
