Hi all, I am new here and am looking to get educated on the various aspect of WLS. I was referred by a friend from work. I have been overweight/obese all of my life and have reached the end of my rope. I know my insurance(Medcost) covers bariatric surgery and after talking to my friend, I think the Fobi pouch is the way to go to help prevent regaining lost weight...the bane of my existence thus far.
I have contacted the surgeon's office and am waiting for them to contact me back to get the process started. I'm wondering about co-morbidities.
Over the past several months I've become more and more sleep-deprived. My husband says I'm snoring like a freight train and I know I wake up at least 6 times a night. I don't know if it's my own snoring or if it's sleep apnea. Also, is gerd considered? I'm just so tired and sick of feeling like crap...and allowing my weight to hold me back in life. I'm done. I'm turning 40 next year and I think it's time.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
