bypass surgery to be done soon, scared...
Nov 09, 2013
I am a new member, I have been reading a lot of posts and have learned so much in the process and I would like to thank you all. My insurance approved me for gastric bypass surgery and am waiting to get a surgery date. I am so scared because I have heard a lot of complications arising from this surgery from people who actually had the surgery and are advising me not to have the surgery. I have tried different diets but have been unsuccessful in loosing weight and I don't want to continue to have a BMI over 40 as I run the risk of obesity related diseases in the future. I would appreciate any helpful comments.
