On November 10, 2008, I had a lapband put in by Dr. Iragua. I went from 229 to 165 over three years, until my thyroid acted up and had to have the left side removed. Due to medication for a low thyroid and fatigue from having hypersomnia, not sleep apnea, I am always tired and now do not exercise as much. I had to have my gallbladder removed in 12/14 and then my lapband on July 8, 2015, had to be removed due to pain, nausea and bile. I am finished my nutrition classes and go for pre-op appointment in January to have a bypass done. Can't wait to be able to move more easily and then get my energy back from this.
