help needed from people who had the weight loose surgery

HI I'm a nurse from Poland. I'm suffering from the morbid obesity science I remember. In my country there is a difficulty to undergo the bariatric surgeries, it's still not popular and the people do not have a knowladge about it. I'm trying to write a master thesis about the quality of life after bariatric surgeries. The main aim of it is to make a surgeries more popular by showing how life saving it is. It in NOT for any marketing reaserch or anything like that. I'm studying nursery on Jagiellonian University, the resulsts will be analysed and used in a masters thesis, and hopefully If I will get enought of respondents I will publish the results for the use of medical stuff in Poland. My opinion is that the feedbeck from the patients is the most valiable sourse of how the procedures are recieved. I kindly request your help in conducting research aimed at improving the quality of life of people after bariatric surgery. The questionnaire is anonymous. The questionaire contains 39 questions it takes about 5-10 min. It is very important to answer all of them. Please help me to help other people who struggle with obesity. http://moje-ankiety.pl/respond-49823.html

But the resideral is im in low cortisol deficiency. my body doesnt produce cortisol so im om cortisone replacement for life. that can be dangerous. So all in all I have Addisons disease. Presisent Kennedy had it back in the 60s. Itvwas from the radiation treatment of I131 for the thyroid ca. Who would of known!

Thank you for help. Thyroid cancer, thats unfortunate, but that is the cancer which gives good chances for full recovery. I hope for the best for you. I recently had a mole removed and got to know it was a melanoma. Have a 7 month old baby so I was depressed for a couple days, but as it was just a 1st stage and I removed it everything should be fine. Can not imagine being in your situation. Great that you are well and hope for a long and happy life for you.

I did your questionnaire!  The problem I had is I had two surgeries.  The first was LBG which was a very bad surgery/experience. I than had a VSG and it is great and I am doing well.

Thank you for your help. Sorry that there was no option of putting more then one type of surgery. That was my mistake. You can do it twice thou and give your opinion of every surgery separately, or choose the one you wish.  Thanks again :) best wishes

Hello!  I took your survey, too.  Hope it is helpful for you.
