Hey Daisy!
I remember something like that. I had to get a pelvic exam for some reproductive system problems, and ended up having to take my medical records to a specialist. I picked up the records and was reading through, and read "abdomen difficult to palpate secondary to obesity" - it was a huge eye-opener. Sure, I knew I was obese, but I never realized it would have such a huge effect, to the point where my doctor couldn't feel the things she needed to feel to accurately diagnose me.
Do you know what sort of plan you're going to follow? We have areas here for almost everything out there, so look around. If you're not sure, read a bit in different spots and I'm sure you'll find something that sounds like it will work for you.
Otherwise, settle in, get to posting, and get going. Stick around! This is a great place!
