Hello Everyone,
I had my sleeve surgery back in December 2014. I was living my abusive parents when my younger brother died suddenly. It shook my world. I had managed to lose about 75 lbs up to that point, but in the year following the death of my brother and under the shadow of mommie dearest's grief, I gained it all back. Can anyone relate?
Now, I have been taking medication for ADD for years, but recently, a couple of friends of mine had told me about Vyvanse which doubles as a very strong ADD medication and as a treatment for binge eating disorder. I have both and got a script from my doctor.
Well. Let me say getting my sleeve to feel brand spanking new can't possibly be any easier than this and I had tried to reboot my sleeve many times since I went off the rails. I'm not here to sell anyone on a drug. All I'm saying is, I'm back.
And you'd think I'd be excited, but all I can feel is relief, I guess.
Maybe it's the hanging skin dangling from my arms? Or is it the fact that I still live with my awful parents who are unimpressed with the blood clot that lived in my brain last year or the spine disease that makes me prone to blood clots or the ptsd that haunts me every day?I want to celebrate getting my body back but the last time I was this skinny, someone died.
So there's that...
Maybe I could get more excited if I could imagine myself without the skin and the flab. Do a lot of insurance companies cover body lifts/skin removal surgery?
