Hello all. I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm 27 years old and suffer from PCOS, high blood pressure, and sleep apnea. Yesterday, my doctor recommended I have the gastric sleeve done. I feel like it's a huge decision to make, so I'm trying to research as much as possible and make a well-educated decision. I have a few questions if any of you don't mind answering: -what made you decide to go ahead with the surgery? -did you attend any seminars/info sessions prior to making your decision? Thanks all for your time! ❤️ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you for all of your encouraging responses. My biggest worry is that I have a 4 year old son who relies on me to care for him. Did any of you experience a lot of sickness? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you! I'm definitely going to attend a seminar beforehand. My doctor has made sure that we've documented my (failed) attempts at weight loss over the past 6-8 months. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

These are exactly my thoughts! I'm a fellow PCOS sufferer as well, and trying to decide if this is the right choice for me. I'll be following your post for responses. Good luck to you! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
