Anyone BIPOLAR and have WLS?
Hi! This is my first post. I was wondering if anyone out there is BIPOLAR or has ANXIETY issues. I have started my journey by selecting a surgeon and will meet with him Thursday. I am most worried about being bipolar and having the sleeve. How it will effect my moods and medications. Please comment and THANKS for your input!!

I have Bipolar with severe paranoia, so far it has not effected me and i have less swings than i did previously.
I was just reading through your post. I have the surgery in 2012 and last December found out I was Bipolar and had severe anxiety. I've had trouble finding the right combinations of drugs so I have gained about 25 pounds back. I'm currently working with my Dr to find the right combo and get back on track.
