Well things are going.. slow... I'd say progressing but I really see no progress. Other then my weight gain :(. I contacted my neurologist. He said that when I get my surgery I will be off all medications for my disorder and I will be a in complete remission rather then remission with medication to control it. I've been working alot lately. I have been picking up an extra shift every week to help control my bills.. LOL now if only I could control my spending. My doctor finally sent my referal off like last week. She also was asking me specifics about weight loss attempts and height and what not. My surgeon will not even begin his practice in halifax until September. At that time I'm sure by the end of September they will know my voice when they hear me speak on the phone. I have to get this surgery done asap. I feel like every day is one day closer to me dying. I no longer want to live feeling all this physical pain day in and day out. Being tired all the time. Being sore all the time. I hate being this big.. and I keep getting bigger. It seems like its an out of control train.. I'm really hoping I get in really really fast.

Well I'm a little annoyed at my GP. I went to see him 3 weeks ago. Called yesterday to see what was happening with the referals.. HE HASNT PREPARED THEM YET!!!! He's usually so great when it comes to anything I need done. I don't understand what is taking him so long :( Its very frustrating though. My neuro was out of the office last week so I'm calling again tomorrow. Hopefully he can speed up the process as well once it gets sent over. Since it will be taking place in his hospital. He likes me too usually does what ever I need fairly quickly. I'm very lucky to have two wonderful doctors, who I get along with and listen to me rather then thinking they know whats best.

ok WOW this was hard to find!!!! I guess I'm to use to blogging :D
I've been considering this surgery for about a year to two years now. I go for a few months considering it. I feel the timing is not right and just let it slide. Well 3 weeks ago I decided the timing is now right. I went to my GP and he is starting to find a surgeon. We do not have one here on PEI but there is one in Halifax and one in Moncton. We're trying to get that all straightened out now.
I've been over weight all my life. I lost 70 lbs 3 and a half years ago. But I have put 30 of it back on. I'm afraid I will keep putting it on. I am extreamly active and a health food nut!! However I can not get below 280 lbs. I'm hoping this will do the trick!
I also have a neurological disorder. CIDP. I'm calling my neurologist tomorrow to make sure that it is ok for me to go in for surgery. My best friend is a nurse and shes extreamly concerned what going under anestetic will do to my disorder. I feel it will not be a problem but to put her mind to rest I'm double checking.
Let the waiting games begin!!!
