Hello everyone
My name is Candy I am 16 months post op gastric bypass. I found BariatricPal while looking for bariatric books on Amazon.
(Since 1990) We have two boys together, Caleb (College) and Connor (high school) .
I was 42 at the time of my RNY surgery with sleep apnea, Severe GERD, high BP, high cholesterol and pre diabetes. I now am free of all these health issues and off all prescription meds. I still have significant joint pain.
I am married to my high school boyfriend
I had an SI joint fusion at 9 months post RNY surgery and a hysterectomy and Tummy tuck at a year post RNY.
