Im lydia and im 18 years old. For the past three years i have been struggling with tons of medical issues which have made me pack on the pounds. I have hoshimoto thyriod, PCOS, hypertension,narcolepsy,IBS, heart murmurs and high heart rate. When i was 15 years old i weight 100 pounds, and as of today ive hit the 200 mark. I am only 5 feet tall so the weight really shows and puts a huge damper on life. With my heart issues i am unable to work out or do cardio, and the PCOS messes with my hormones and cause me to gain more and more weight every month. I have dieted, been on pills and vitamins, attempted to work out and everything has failed. My docotr finally agreed to the lapband surgery, but my insurance comapny is saying they wont pay on it. I dont know where else to turn, if i cant get this surgery not only with my health continue to decline, depression and hopelessness are going to take over my life.:redface:
