Hi everyone,
I also came across this forum while researching. I already spoke to my PCP about it and he referred me to a surgeon and I'm attending a seminar tomorrow! What should I expect? I was diagnosed with PCOS and it's been so hard to lose any weight even if you're doing everything right. It's incredibly frustrating and I don't know what to do anymore and my PCP said that this surgery would definitely help so I'm definitely going based on his recommendation. I switched my insurance because the surgeon I want only takes one type of insurance and once I receive my member card and packet I think I'll be able to schedule a consultation with her. I'm very nervous about this but I'm also excited at the same time!
I'm 26, I'm 260 lbs and I''m 5'4" and this is the heaviest I have ever been and I just seem to keep gaining.
I would just read through posts but I thought I would get a little more involved and try to get to know more people that might be experiencing some of the doubts, questions, and anxiety that I might have. It's good to know that there are so many nice people in this community!
