I was always a little chunky, and I gained some with pregnancies. But when I was 25 I started having severe asthma attacks. Resuscitated and on a ventilator twice. So I spent 10 years on steroids, going up and down on the doses trying to keep it under control. Gained 60 more lbs. and more. New med in 2000, have not taken steroids regularly since.
I've been up and down the scale several times. But never kept it off.
Now I'm on this journey, so I can live longer, and more actively with my kids and grandkids.

I can tell you I've had to take steroids a lot I've the years for my asthma, and I was always ravenous ! A painful hunger. Thus, all the extra weight.
I don't have to do that much any more, thank goodness. But I did have my knee injected last year, and reacted the same. Shouldn't last but a couple days! Good luck!

I just completed my pre op requirements today! Originally part of the insurance requirements was 10% weight loss, which I have worked hard to do over the last two months. Hit it on the head at the doctor"s office this morning. Then was told my insurance had changed it to 5%!! So now Ihave a cushion and can relax a little. My record is complete and will be submitted in the next few days. The wait for approval begins!
I am so giddy right now, just to have made it this far! Thank you for all your posts, and I hope to be scheduled in June!

Where do you live? Maybe someone from here could take you home. Do you have taxis where you are? Might be worth the money. Good luck!

Playing with my grandkids, living longer to see them grow, shopping in the "normal" parts of the store, not feeling so self conscious, and not feeling so exhausted all the time!

They may want you to see a pulmonologist to sign off.

I have my last nut visit May 5. I have done everything else but the psych evaluation, an my insurance requires 10% weight loss prior to approval. I am 10 lbs away. I talked to my coordinator today, and she said I should be able to plan on surgery in late May to June!
I am so thankful to everyone on this site as I've been working to lose the first part of the weight law last month! can't wait!

My daughter and her family live with us, and my granddaughter is 8. She is very sensitive and very smart, so I've been talking to her about what's coming up. I am looking at surgery in June or July, so she's currently encouraging me through the pre op weight loss. The other kids are 3 & 8 mos. so they aren't aware of anything. They are a big reason for me wanting to do this!

It just means the nerves in the shoulder are somehow connected to the upper belly, so the pressure in the belly from the gas is felt in the shoulder. Weird. Huh?

The gas pain you feel under your shoulder is referred pain from the gas somewhere else
