Hi Everyone.
I have just registered as a member.
My name is Andy and like most have struggled with my weight for as long as i can remember
I got turned down for funding in January this year because i didn't have 6 months of weight loss management so in May i was referred to a Dietician at my local Surgery.
Since then i have lost just 8lb but halfway through i got diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apneoa
It was very bad - i was stopping breathing 70 times an HOUR:sigh:.
I got my CPAP the very next day so i'm keeping it at bay for now
The sleep apnoea nurse dealing with me immediately referred me to see a Professor J. Alcolado and 'team three' on the 21 Oct.
I can re apply for funding by the end of the year so hopefully,with all my ailments,that i'll secure funding.
My BMI is 61
and need to lose AT LEAST 10 stone.
I can only go through the NHS route so hopefuly i won't have to get through to many hurdles before surgery !
Thanks for listening
Take Care
Andy x
