I havent had the surgery yet, but I am definately looking into it. I have a BMI of about 61. I have an appt with my doc on Sept. 3rd and I am sure she will approve of the surgery. Are there any certain questions I should ask her? I have done alot of reading on the internet about the surgery and I think it's the right choice for me. I do have diabetes and high blood pressure. I also have sleep apnea but havent gone for a sleep study yet. I feel like this has to be it for me or I will die young like my mother. I want to see my kids grow up and I want to be able to live life to the fullest. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! thanks
