On July 2nd, I started having pretty severe chest pain/tightness that wasn't going away. I've had little "spells" of chest pain before this, but they'd go away. July 3rd, went to the ER. July 5th, had a stent put in at the age of 31 (about 400 lbs that day) due to a 95% blockage in the front artery of my heart.
Since, I have quit smoking cold turkey (no gum or anything), and have lost about 20 pounds by taking out soda, working with a dietitian, and doing cardiac rehab three times a week. Yesterday I met my new primary doctor for the first time. To my surprise, he said he's adamant about WLS. I had thought about WLS in the past (even making this account on this forum last year, I believe?), but it kinda scared me so I stopped looking further.
Doc said with my sleep apnea, BMI, and the heart issue - it'd make for a good case for my insurance. I'll be meeting with him August 3rd to discuss the next steps.
So, here I am. Wanted to introduce myself and share my story so far.
