Something funny in bed this morning

[aquaman00067 7]

I was sleeved on December 11, 2102. I am a big guy a year ago before I started this journey I weighed 415 and am 6'3. I was 372 on surgery day and I am now 328. I was in bed this morning waking up and rubbing my chest and stomach just feeling around and noticed in the center of my chest I have a knot around 2 inches and protruding a little. I was like what the hell is this! Oh great I have found a tumor, then it hit me still not being quite awake and realized I have never in my life felt my xiphoid process /sternum. I read that the little bone grows bent and is more pronounced on very large obese people but is never seen unless there is a large weight reduction. Anyway, it made me laugh this morning and my wife to when I called her at work.

I thought that bone felt bigger than it did when I was younger! I attributed it to age, but now I know! I also have a knot on my right collarbone where it ends at the middle of my neck . I swear that wasn't there when I was younger either, but the Dr. looked at it and just said it was normal bone.

Also finally got a diagnosis for Rheumatoid Arthritis when I lost weight and the Dr. could see how swollen my joints were. Sheesh!
