Here is my story. In two days I will be 38 years old. I have suffered from rheumatoid arthritis since age 7 and was diagnosed with a degenerative hip condition 2 years ago. I am tired of being in pain and my doctor suggested gastric bypass in order to hopefully avoid/postpone hip and knee replacements. I began the process and I am close to completion of classes and nutritionist visits and I hope to be scheduled for surgery in January/february. I cannot wait for the surgery. I am looking forward to the day when I can get up out of a chair without pain.
