Maria,

I'm very sorry you were turned down. Did they say what the reason was? I personally don't know anyone who's applied, so I don't know what formula / criteria they use in determining if you are accepted or denied.

Keep pushing them, I'm sure you will get it. Keep us posted on your progress.

Thank you for your support I have to tell some one about my day last night talk about being scared as you guys know i took on babysitting a little boy a couple times a week. I felt bad for the single mom but i can honestly say im not handling the extra well at all. well yesterday this little boy who never listens to me opened my front door with out me knowing a few min later i couldnt find my 21 month old my dog and him they were out side i live on main street i panicked im crying my dogs running loose and oh my god to little boys out side alone thank god alex my son loves his sand box so he was in the back yard eating sand i grabed them up and cried and cried some more. then i punished the little boy i was so scared. My husband told me to tell her i can****ch him because she has no limits lets him do what ever he wants. But i feel bad she knows her son needs structure i think he needs nanny 911 lol. The kids are fine mom on he other hand i had to take a xanax

Well I'd say you are in the right spot! I'm not sure about the adrenal issue but I believe that can also be part of the fibro syndrome. Sounds like you may also have chronic fatigue which often goes along with the fibro. I would see a rheumatologist or pain specialist about the fibro but before you actually see one ask if they deal with fibro, some do and others just don't believe it exists. The tender points are one way to tell if it is fibro. I know my PCP sent me to a rheum and he did like a 2 hr. in depth exam. If anyone brushes you off keep trying till you find someone who will believe you and treat you. Best of luck to you and we are always here to help if we can!

Loretta - Everyone feels scared before the surgery...it is only human.  I am soooo thankful that I had a gastric bypass 5 1/2 years ago and wish I would have not waited till I was 55.  I missed out on so much of my kids lives.  I just didn't have the energy to keep up with them.  Whenever it was time to go to the neighborhood pool, I just couldn't cause I was so ashamed of my size and wouldn't put on a bathing suit.  If there was a school event, I always had an excuse not to go and send my husband.  I didn't want anyone to see me.  They are grown now but I look at pictures of them when they were little and wonder were I was.  I never wanted to get my picture taken or if I did I always had a pillow or something in front of me.  They never say anything about it but I know when they look at the old pictures they see there is not many of me.  You will get through the surgery just fine and you will be so much better for it.  God Bless You.
