The Beginning...

My journey started in 2010.  I did all the research.  Found out what hospitals
offered the type of surgery wanted.  I talked with my primary care physician (pcp) to see if she thought I would be a good canidate for the surgery.    Then had a routine scan and a spot was found on my lung.  I had 6 more months of tests, scans, more tests and then it was suspected to be CANCER!!   This put the Gastric Bypass on hold while I get the lung biopsied.  It was the worst ordeal I have ever gone through with a surgery.  The spot was inside the lung but it was unreachable thru the throat so the Dr preformed laproscopic surgery thru my side, under my arm pit and then lower at my bra line.  It took me over a month to heal. The doctors had a hard time controlling my pain.  It ended up not being cancer though! :)
So now I can concentrate on having the gB.
