Chronic Illness wls Support Group
What is Chronic Illness?
"A chronic illness is a condition that lasts a year or longer, limits activity, and may require ongoing care. More than 125 million Americans have at least one chronic condition, such as diabetes, cancer, glaucoma, heart disease, Fibromyalga, Multiple Sclerosis, and Lupus. Nearly half as many have more than one chronic condition."
Hello and welcome,
This group was specifically created for WLS candidates and post ops who like me face the unique challenges that living with a chronic illness may often present. As individuals with a chronic illness, we face greater challenges that the typical mainstream weight loss surgery patient may not face. Sometimes we feel left out of the loop as we read about others who are doing certain activities that we are no longer able to tolerate.

Yess,
We are not here to make people feel left out, we are here to support each other no matter what problem or condition each one has. Everyone has things that they cannot do,but if you focus on the things that you can do it should make you feel better and stronger as time goes on. Hope you stay around and talk to us on the board. We are only here to help.
