Am excited about this medical decision, but also just a little scared. As a self-pay, I will be traveling to Mexico, 1st trip there! My sister, who is a detective, with the police force was going to accompany me, but she is bogged down with court until well into October and I don't want to wait! So...I'll be traveling by myself, which might be therapeutic! haha! At 235 lbs, my blood pressure is now is the hypertensive stages and my pulse is racing. My back hurts, my feet hurt, my knees hurt. I am a nurse so it is quite a contradiction to the HEALTH care field!! I can't wait to get this boost to help me get healthy again! Also i am having a hard time with the pre-op diet. The two/three shakes and salad are just not working for me, I get physically sick and get a headache. Has anyone else experienced this? thanks
