How Soon after cancer for wLS

April 2004 I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer, I had been approved for wls at the same time as I was seeing a wls surgeon. I ended up having a complete hysterectomy June 10 2004. I had also gone through 6 chemo treatments after. My question is: How long must I wait until I can pursue wls? I've been told two different times its either 5 years or 2 years. I'm going to be 62 years old this July, and I truly want this to happen in a reasonable amount of time so I can drop this extra baggage I'm carrying around. I have a 42 morb and I weight 250lbs. Can someone please give me a good answer. Thank You Paula
