I am 46 and I have erosive osteoarthritis, coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis, fibromyalgia, heart stents, degenerative disc disease, bulging discs, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and more......plus I work full time. This is my last option so that i can see future grand children and live a full healthier life. Sometimes there is more to s person than meets the eye.....
I am new here and will not be having my surgery until October. My BMI is 35 and I am getting so much negativity from heavier people when I go to my appointments. So many rude comments. ..........I have major health issues and need to do this to live a normal length of life. It does make me nervous but I know I need to do this. These comments are making me feel guilty about my decision.
