I' date=' too, had fertility issues. I have PCOS and was told I would have difficulty getting pregnant. I got pregnant my first month of attempting, and my daughter was perfect in spite of diabetes and and overall high risk pregnancy. I was lucky enough to have a healthy baby, and could not get pregnant again.

As heartbreaking as your miscarriages are, your good news is you CAN get pregnant. I hope you are able to carry to term once this is done for you.

I was not well controlled and in my last four weeks post op, I'm using about half the insulin than I was before. It's not the easy road, but worth it.[/quote']

No it certainly isn't the easy road. But the way I look at it anything is worth kids filling the house. I am sorry for the troubles you went thru. Hopefully this will be the answer for us all. With hard work and determination of course.

Nothing to be sorry about. My family doesn't look like what I dreamed. Whose does? I was incredibly blessed with this gregarious, beautiful girl. She healthy, smart, and kind. I guess I was meant to spend all my resources on her.

I hope this surgery helps you fulfill those dreams. I know how important that is to a person.

I haven't been revised to RNY yet. I was on avanderyl once,and metformin 1000 twice daily for 15 years. After banding, I came off avanderyl and one of my B/P meds. I never came off the metformin and in the past 5 months, my sugars have been going up and out of control. I am really and truly hoping to get off all medicines.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
