pizzicato66 is on a distinguished road
Default Congrats!

Jerry, Congratulations! Know that you WILL see the improvements you want in your health and general comfort. A year ago, I had major fasciitis in my feet, back pain, knee pain, daily heartburn (on prilosec every day) and sleep apnea (I'm sure I could list other things too).

Now:
- my fasciitis is almost gone and I walk a LOT!
- knees are much happier
- back pain is nowhere what it was (now I get a sore bum from sitting with less padding - go figure!)
- NO heartburn at all!
- I sleep like a baby

Plus, I get to buy clothes in the "normal" sizes, have a ton more energy and am far more comfortable in my skin!

Any time I get discouraged, I just need to remember back to where I was 15 months ago and I feel rejuvenated and grateful.

Welcome and good luck in surgery!
