Wickedone 1 Posted October 17, 2018 I'm in!I got my insurance approval in early August, done the investigations and scheduled the procedure on Aug 30. I ended up cancelling the whole thing due to fear and anxiety and constant question in my mind (am I giving up with out seriously trying diet and exercise?).What actually prompted me to consider sleeving was the constant pain and agony from Sciatica caused by disc protrusions L3-S1. Living on Lyrica, Arcoxia and muscle relaxantsMy current weight is 135 Kg (298 lbs) while my maximum was 140 Kg (308 lbs) last yearAlthough I got some relief back in july when I went to Bali with my wife to Celebrate our 5 year anniversary when I dropped to 127 Kg (280 lbs) and discontinued my meds, but soon I gained back what lost and reach my 2 year average of 135 Kg (298 lbs) and went back my neurologist to restart treatment for the disc proplase ans sciaticaJust 3 days ago I decided I've had enough and rescheduled the surgery to Nov 1st.Sent from my SM-G965F using BariatricPal mobile app 1 theresahyatt19 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted October 19, 2018 Arcoxia is a Coxib, is IT a near-enough cousin to NSAIDS that you will have to delete it? Or will you be allowed to keep it since you are a Sleeve Candidate? I have an Ulcer 💢caused by excessive NASID usage, so I worry about it for others. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
