I knew I needed to do something about my health and the cost of my medications. I have been a Diabetic for 16 years now and have had to use a insulin pump for the past 8 years. With the cost of health insurance going up and the lack of prescription coverage was going to break me. My stock pile of insulin has been depleted and I would have to come up with the money to buy my insulin along with my high deductable insurance this coming year. I went to the pharmacy to see how much the cost of one bottle of insulin would be and I was disgusted, one bottle of my insulin costed $875 and because I use a pump I would need at least 4-6 bottles a month. That is $5200 a month and I don't even make that much of an income.
Well I have a co worker who had the gastric sleeve done in July of 2012 and raved about how easy and cost effective it was. So it didn't take me long to weigh the cost of better health over poverity illness. When I made the final decision to contact weightlossagents to schedule my surgery I felt a load of financial weight being lifted.
I had my weight loss surgery on December 4th and now that I am two weeks post op, I feel so much better. I have only lost 10-15lbs so far but my blood sugars are getting lower each day and I know that once my body gets used to my blood sugars being in the normal ranges of 60-80 the weight will start melting off.
This surgery not only saved my life but also saved my pocket book.
