Part of my problem is financial. Like a lot of other people money for this kind of surgery is an issue. More so due to the fact that my husband is on disability. The weight loss has been a good thing, but now the excess tissue is making it difficult for me to move easily. It gets irriated and there are infection problems due to the decreased circulation.

Another part of the problem is the after-care if I do manage to get the surgery. My husband had a stroke and I am is caregiver. Sigh.

I'm in WV - anyone know a medical school who gives discounts for letting the students work on them?
