Sweet....got insurance approved...Sour I learned i might have thyroid condition. Anyone's doc tell u to hold off surgery?? Due to thyroid condition? Or did you have hyper or hypo and still pursued the surgery??? If you had the surgery having a thyroid condition, did it help or make you feel worse.

I started to see a new Endricologist doctor right before I decided to consider surgery since I'm a type 2 diabetic, high blood pressure and wasn't happy with my 1st doctor who was for my surgery, just was too busy for me and I was not feeling well, meaning unbalanced, light headed, sudden vertigo feeling, along with anxiety attacks that would turn into panic attacks.

Last week I got lab results from my Endricologist and told me she found too much Protein in my prescribed RAMIPRIL and also told me I'm super low deficiency on Vitamin d and prescribed 4 pills of 50k mlg to take 1 a week for a month

When I mentioned to her I wanted to have the surgery she was appalled and told me no, to wait

But my primary doctor is ok with me having the surgery.

Today I was called my the WLS doctor office my insurance approved me. I'm excited and not sure what to do, feeling so confused and still want to pursue my surgery but haven't heard much from ppl having the WLS while having a thyroid condition.

My health is first and foremost my priority but adding 2 new pills is not where I planned to be, my goal and WLS is to get me healthier and get off the Meds.

I'm 5'7

Today Weighing 267

I month ago I was 255

Goal would be 160 or 150

Any and all info is much appreciated

Thank you!

I already have thin hair. I can't afford to loose any. I'm really going to look funny. Lol

I have thin hair as well, but it's inevitable and it will come back. So I'm going to do my best to not sweat it and maybe buy some hats or a nice wig hahaha
