Christie,
I don't know if this is an official co-morbidity, but I suffered
tremendously up until about 3 months post-op when it sort just disappeared.
I had Fibromyalgia. The constant flu like body ache was terrible and
caused me to lose time at work frequently. I was seeing a Rhumatologist
for it. Their recommendation was to lose weight since there are really no
other treatments available and it can become diabiling. I have had no
problems since I lost the first 45 lbs. I'm now down 135 lbs and at
117-120, I feel great. I also had high BP, incontinence and arthritis. I
no longer take any medication for any of this. Yahoo! Good luck and I
hope you get a quick approval. Go to my profile to see the diet and
medical history I sent to my insurance company...Aetna HMO. I was approved
first time in less than 2 weeks.

I would add Carpel Tunnel Syndrome and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. There
is also a foot problem involving bone spurs in the feet, I'm not sure what
it is called.
