I chose the VGS as a health option for multiple chronic conditions (diabetes, liver disease, HBP, high cholesterol, strokes, heart disease with failed triple CABG, heart stents, disabling angina.
lo
Within a month of my sleeve (10/5/17) I was off 13 of my 17 medications, and the angina, for which we had been considering a stairlift, was resolved.
THIS PAST YEAR, 2018, is the FIRST year in 12 years that I have had NO hospitalizations for anything life-threatening, chronic, and in fact, NO hospitalizations at all.
I can do the stairs, no diabetes (low BS if I don't do enough protein), no HBP (it stays 105/70), bad cholesterol 39; my Triglycerides 108 mg/dL down from 500. And the good cholesterol is up to 62.
I am down 8 sizes, to a 4 (I didn't even know that was a number) And so I feel just marvelous. Yes, it's a big life change to have the VGS, but the health benefits and the life it puts back into your world is amazing!
