I am at the beginning stages for approval through Tricare. I am an active 32 year-old. I am currently going to graduate school and work as a Title 1 reading/social studies teacher. I am 5'7" and 223 lbs. with a BMI of 35. I am being treated for Fibromyalgia and Lupus. I have nerve damage/pain from inflammation. I have high cholesterol (320). I am not treated for high blood pressure, but do have high blood pressure when I visit the doctor. I have never been tested for sleep apnea, but do believe I have sleep apnea. I have snored since I can remember and I do not have tonsils. I do have heartburn, but have never been tested for acid reflux. I have been seen for chest pain; it has been treated as pericarditis. I have spinal stenosis at L3-4 & L5-6. I have carpal and cubital tunnel in both arms/hands. I have always been a hungry person and am looking to not feel the need to eat. I do exercise, but it is not enough. I come from an overweight family and use to be one of the smallest in the group. I want to stop the cycle and not wait until I am older and have more conditions.
