No More Doubts!

[SandeeD 363]

If I had any doubts at all if I'm doing the right thing by getting the sleeve, they are gone for good! I had my sleep study last night and as I'm walking through the lobby of the facility, I lost my footing and fell flat on my back. My back went out on me earlier in the day, so my back and legs already felt weak (I have spinal nerve damage). Well, the front desk person freaked out (because my head hit the hard tile floor, but thank God I had my hair in a bun, so it cushioned the impact). It took two security guards to pick me up. At that point, I felt more humiliated and embarrassed than anything else. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well last night, all of the wires, uncomfortable bed, etc., and this morning I was sore (from the fall). The upside is that the facility and their employees get an A+. They were very caring, kind and compassionate and that's important in the medical profession. I have a multitude of medical issues, but mentally (and physically) I can only handle one thing at a time and I KNOW that the first thing on the list is to lose weight and the rest will follow. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

sorry that happened

obviously you hurt, and i can understand you feeling humiliated

i had a similar situation

my/your excess weight causes all sorts of problems/issues

many/most issues will be alleviated while you are losing weight

good luck with the rest of your "hurdles" with insurance

hoping for WLS as soon as possible
