  1. Been dealing with BP2 for decades. Some of the meds made me gain a lot of weight. That was one of the reasons I chose the gastric sleeve. 27 months in I'm at goal and maintaining. I'm no longer grappling with diabetes , arthritic knees and high blood pressure. That in itself has improved my mood exponentially. I can take my Seroquel XR and Trileptal without gaining weight. My psychiatrist had no problem with the surgery but recommended the sleeve for better absorption of meds. I can excercise daily. ...that maintains a healthy mood. Don't be afraid. But stay in compliance with your psychiatrist and check out Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy. It's therapy designed for people with BP. If you can't find a practitioner, please private message me. I may be able to help u find someone. Peace

    No more diabetes meds, no blood pressure meds. I have my health back! As active as I was in my 30s. A few more lines in my face but absolutely NO regrets![emoji847]

    Any St. Louis/Metro Area Sleevers out there?

    nNow, I can see the difference. Sleeved 11/11/2015. Takes a while for your eyes to see what's really going on.

    I'm a sleever. Belleville. IL
  5. I have a great surgical team.
  6. I was sleeved in November 2015. Ive reached my goal weight. I've only told 5 friends who are supportive. No one in my family knows. They would have been negative and unsupportive. Since I live alone with my pup there's no reason to broadcast my actions. I made the right choice. My faith in God and a few friends have gotten me through.

    Hi. Is this thread still active? I'm from Belleville, IL. Sleeved by Dr Eagon at Barnes 11/2015. I could use a support buddy if you're in the market. Are you attending the BJC support group in West County?
