I have several more appt. scheduled with the dietician, and hopefully in 6 months I will be on the road to recovery from obesity. I would like to know what comorbilities qualify for surgery. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from all.

I'd read around this forum, there are some good and some bad stories to see. JBlack made a good post of everything he had to go through to get approved, which is one of the toughest aspects. What type of bariatric surgery are you looking into?

Welcome!
