                        I have heart & lung disease and have also developed type 2 diabetes that requires injections daily.  My weight has ballooned due to the steroids I have been forced to take for lungs.  Just recently, my cardiologist suggested that I be a candidate for this Gastric Bypass surgery but my family doctor hasn't put his seal of approval yet.  I am a bit confused as to what to do!  I can't exercise due to the heart & the heart or diabetes won't get any better unless I lose some weight & can exercise.  Somebody give me some advice here.  Thanks.
