I had a lot of concerns when considering VSG. I have decided that through many failed attempts on my own that I need this tool to help me succeed. I think of all the risks if I don't have this surgery and get my weight under control.
Diagnosis I have:
High BP, elevated triglycerides, hypothyroidism, PCOS, anxiety, depression, GERD
If I have all these @ 32 what will my life be like in 15 years?!?! I am scarred to think. Diabetes, stroke, heart disease, bad knees, bad back... I could go on and on
So the risks of surgery are minimal in comparison.
