    Don't let anything stop you from gastric beariatric surgery. Don't wait and think the blood pressure medication and diabetic medication and insulin is just my way of life. Sleep apnea is no fun but ill just deal with it. If your on disability there is a way to get it paid for. If you need a new car the surgery is not as expensive as a moderate equipped new car. I am retired and 67 years old i have medicare part a and b. And a supplement. Insurance has been paying 100 percent. I have lost total 80 lbs since august 2023. And it is may 2024.No more blood pressure medication no more diabetic medication and insulin. I walk 4 miles a day and in August i will get a sleep study to see if i still need the c-pap. I had a total 11 different doctors and every health system was checked. I wish i would of had the surgery the first time my body mass index went over 40. About 25 years ago.

    Very true I'm 10 days out from gastric sleeve surgery. Weight loss many times in my 67 years. Always got to a weight and my body stopped me from further loss. I'm glad to say I am 20 lbs below that stop Weight but it took gastric sleeve surgery to get past. Being retired and dedicated my time to exercise intermittent fasting and weighing food and fluids. Not to mention the 12 different doctors and pre surgery exams. And dieticians. If your serious about weight reduction it's not just a phone call to a reputable organization there's thousands of dollars involved in professional care. I Lost 55 lbs on my own with dieticians guidance. I don't regret a thing now I Lost 20 lbs in 10 days after sleeve surgery. That is a loss of 75 lbs in 9 months. I am totally prepared for a possible weight stall as I start purred food in less than a week but I am walking 3 miles ever other day and not setting on my butt waiting for the lbs. To disappear. You can't be low energy and lazy and find a excuse. That's what having a professional organization on your side sometime prodding you to get with your goals. My surgeon will be satisfied if I loose another 50 lbs. I have a year of potential weight loss per historical stats. I no longer take blood pressure medicine or any diabetes medication including insulin. At one time I took 20 different medications and now I'm down to 4 and potential reduction after my cardiologist appointment in a week. I have been on a c-pap. For severe sleep apnea for 12 years. I'm having a sleep study later this year to change settings or stop using it. My testosterone level is increasing and I'm able to function sexually as being a man. Loosing 75 lbs changed my life and giving me a second chance at a healthy life.

    GERD can be due to technique as well, and an MD did confirm this to me. I am told that where the incisions are made and avoiding certain landmarks of the stomach, Angle of his, etc etc...can be very important. I Would have had the surgery, but there is NO way for me to confirm the type of technique my surgeon uses. GERD can be due to other reasons of course, but technique is a factor.

    I had a sleeve gastrectomy back in 2019, with no issues of bad reflux or heartburn until recently, after a kidney transplant. Apparently, it’s a side effect of one of my anti-rejection medications. I take protonix twice daily, and it eases it, but it doesn’t eliminate it. I wish there was a solution that didn’t involve another surgery.

    I have been diagnosed with rapid dumping syndrome but I have never had surgery. None of the doctors I have see can tell me why I have developed this. It all started after getting pancreatitis with COVID and had ACDF surgery on my neck . It all happened at the same time. So they say I have exocrine pancreatic insufficieny, rapid dumping syndrome, over active gallbladder, fatty liver, and chronic gastritis. I went through all these symptoms for 2 yrs and saw tons of doctors here in Conyers Georgia and no one figured it out. They kept saying it was ànxiety and panic attacks. I had to do my own research and figure out what was going on then I demanded the test that finally got me diagnosed. It's been a nitemare having all these symptoms of impending doom, flushing, hypoglycemia, sweating ect. Now I'm learning how to manage my symptoms no thanks to the doctors. I think I may have found one that is actually going to finally help me understand this condition I have. And thank you for sharing your video.
