Hi all,
I've been a lurker for a while, but thought it was time to introduce myself.
A Type II diabetic on insulin, I've been overweight for many years. I 'bit the bullet' in April of this year, when I asked my GP for a referral to SRH.
I got my referral and went to the group consultation in July, where I got weighed. About 3 weeks ago I got my dietician appointment for 24th November ... only to receive another letter a few days later, deferring the appointment until Feb 2012.
As a comfort eater, I'm sure that I will need to see the psych. and wonder how I will get on when I finally reach that hurdle.
My diabetes consultant suggests that the bypass would be my best option and, having read up, would tend to agree from what I understand.
Looking forward to spending time on the forum.
