I am here to make friends who actually understand the plight of being overweight. I have been overweight my entire life, but am now considered severely morbidly obese. I have uncontrolled high blood pressure, GERD, sleep apnea, hypersomnia, venous stasis, a non-healing ulcer, RLS, heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, Morton's neuromas, back pain, knee problems, depression, and a plethora of psychological problems, all weight-related. I fill 11 prescriptions monthly. I HAVE HAD IT!!! NO MORE!!! I am seeking a doctor who is sympathetic and actually wants to see me get better - I realized recently that my doctor has me on 2 blood pressure meds, 2 water pills, and three other meds that cancel those out by raising my blood pressure and causing fluid retention! Why do I have to find this out on my own on the INTERNET?!?!? If you can relate to my frustration, please, PLEASE, let me know! No one seems to get it! Anyway, I have about 250 pounds to lose, so welcome to the beginning of my journey - won't you join me?
