NOW THAT I FOUND LOCAL

I have requested information packet from Dr. Ronnie keith. He is the only one in state that does medicare. I am seriously considering the surgery, just not sure which would be best for me. I have chronic depression secondary to fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue. I also have diabetes controlled by diet, sleep apnea, high blood pressure. Last year I had carpal tunnel release done to first the left and then the right. In between those two surgeries, I had major lumbar surgery with fusion and rods. Oh and I already have that dumping syndrome. I have had that sine I was about 11 yrs old and I am 43 yrs old now. My bmi is 49.5 with me weighing 271# gee I have never shared that before. I am about 100 miles from Dr. Keith so I am concern about all the travel and everything. I understand this is a tool and not a cure all. I know there can be major risks and even death. Do I continue gaining weight or go for this life altering decision. I think I already know the answer. But I would like to hear from the patients of dr keith and others that have had surgery and had to travel. Also through in the fact I have 3 daughters from ages 17, 12 and 9.
