  3. reachbree, I know the feeling and I too am 36 years old. I'm just beginning this process of doctor appointments etc and haven't told my Mom or family for fear of what will be said like you're young enough to do it on your own with diet and exercise or that's the easy way out. Yet I've been struggling with my weight since I was 5 and I've tried everything to lose it. Unfortunately my weight now is finally causing medical problems especially Type 2 and infertility so I have to do this to be healthy. Please don't be discouraged by what they say your doing this for you. I know it's easier said then done since I'm thinking of telling my family the night before my surgery but I want to make this decision for me and not be swayed by their negativity. Good luck and stay strong you are worth it! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

    Heartburn

    A few months ago I was diagnosed with acid reflux and I didn't even know I had it. I've been having trouble with hoarseness and decided to go to a Gastro Doc. He told me that in addition to the reflux I also had an ulcer again something I did not know about. So for both conditions I've been on medicine to heal the ulcer but reflux medicine will actually be for the rest of my life. Just recently I decided to explore WLS and had my 1st appointment the other day. The surgeon told me I would need another endoscopy to see if anything has healed before I can move ahead with other testing. I know I have given you too much info but it is important to treat your heartburn because eventually it can cause bigger problems with your esophagus and may even cause cancer. Also the surgeon says that he too does the endoscopy before surgery and if he finds anything or the area hasn't healed he'll either reschedule or cancel it completely. Your doc maybe different but figured I'd I'll let you know. Sorry for the very long response. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App
