I have been reading on this for a month now. I already had my first consult with Dr. Was waiting on insurance approval for sleep study. Its been almost 3 weeks and haven't heard anything about sleep study.
I went to visit my primary physician last week and he is not very happy and is not agreeable for me to have the lapband surgery.
I have talked to family members about the surgery also.
I am bi-polar and severe clincally depressed. Went to talk to my counselor this week about the surgery. Between all the talkin and thinking I have done lately, have decided I don't think this is for me. I have too many up and downs with my moods swings and all. I'm not sure I could stay healthy with the lapband. I am a single parent and working. Trying to deal with alot of things daily, without having to worry if I am eating healthy enough. One day I might eat the next time I maynot eat at all. That wouldn't be healthy for me .
So on hold for now...........:phanvan
