In 2018, before turning 50, Petra Trammell ended up in the hospital with heart failure.<\/p>\n

Trammell, who had been diagnosed with asthma in 2015, was struggling to breathe and went to urgent care to get medication.<\/p>\n

“My blood pressure was very, very high \u2014 at stroke level,” she says. “They couldn\u2019t get it under control, so they transferred and admitted me to the hospital.”<\/p>\n

Providers at MultiCare Valley Hospital<\/a> took care of her blood pressure, but she was diagnosed with heart failure.<\/p>\n

“The denial is so strong. Even though the physicians were telling me I was in heart failure, I couldn\u2019t hear it,” recalls Trammell. “What I heard was that my asthma was acting up.”<\/p>\n

To be released from the hospital, she needed a primary care provider (PCP). Her PCP had recently left MultiCare, so she didn\u2019t have one. A social worker contacted the office where her provider had practiced and connected her with Charles Haigh, MD<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Trammell came out of the hospital needing oxygen 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n

“I was retaining so much fluid, my body was drowning itself. Everything was so saturated \u2014 that\u2019s why it was hard to breathe,” she says. “Now I know it wasn\u2019t asthma; I had had heart failure for the past three years.”<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cFrom the beginning [at the bariatric clinic], it was a different conversation. I was able to talk about being overweight with people who didn\u2019t look away.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Soon after release from the hospital, she went to see Dr. Haigh.<\/p>\n

“He told me my life expectancy was less than five years,\u201d she says. “It was scary to hear, but l knew I had to face addressing my health.”<\/p>\n

Trammell, who had been overweight and affected by severe obesity the majority of her life, said doctors have told her over the years she needs to lose weight, but haven\u2019t offered help.<\/p>\n

“Dr. Haigh was one of the first doctors to talk to me about a solution and do it in a kind way,\u201d she says. \u201cLucky for me, Dr. Haigh is interested in and knowledgeable about bariatric surgery.”<\/p>\n

Trammell then made an appointment at MultiCare Rockwood Weight Loss & Bariatric Surgery Center<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“From the beginning [at the bariatric clinic], it was a different conversation. I was able to talk about being overweight with people who didn\u2019t look away,” she says. “And they have created an environment so you can keep your respect \u2014 they have bigger chairs, larger doorways. You don\u2019t have to feel weird and walk in sideways.”<\/p>\n

“While our current location was being built, we were very intentional with doorways, chairs, blood pressure cuffs and exam tables,” explains Megan Vulcan, ARNP<\/a>, a nurse practitioner at the clinic. “We wanted to make sure our patients feel comfortable while they are here.”<\/p>\n

Trammell met with bariatric surgeon Andrew Bright, MD<\/a>, and decided to have surgery.<\/p>\n

After fulfilling insurance requirements, she underwent bariatric surgery in 2019 \u2014 nearly a year to the day after she was diagnosed with heart failure.<\/p>\n

“I had to change my life, and surgery was the tool that allowed me to change it,\u201d says Trammell. “After surgery, the staff at the clinic teaches you how to eat, which is amazing. It wasn\u2019t easy, though. I had to focus 100 percent on what I was eating.”<\/p>\n

She says it\u2019s easier to stay on track when she does meal preparation, rather than coming home from work and having to figure it out.<\/p>\n

“You can undo this and sabotage yourself, but I\u2019m never going back,\u201d adds Trammell, who is now 55. \u201cI never thought meal prep would be part of my life, but now it\u2019s something I do, and it really helps me.”<\/p>\n

Medical problems disappear after weight loss<\/h2>\n

Before surgery, Trammell was 480 pounds. Now, she\u2019s 294 pounds lighter.<\/p>\n

“Petra went from a starting BMI of 74 to 28,” says Vulcan.<\/p>\n

\"Woman<\/p>\n

Because of the weight loss, Trammell\u2019s medical problems disappeared.<\/p>\n

\u201cI no longer have asthma, high blood pressure or sleep apnea,\u201d she explains. “But here\u2019s the most incredible thing: I no longer have heart failure. At one point, it was found I had aortic stenosis and an enlarged heart. Those heart problems are gone, too.”<\/p>\n

And her fitness and mobility have improved. Before losing weight, Trammell had difficulty walking from her desk at work to the elevator and then to her car.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019d get home from work and go to sleep; my body was physically exhausted,\u201d she says. “That\u2019s all my body could physically do. Now, I can walk stairs and go for walks with friends, which was my goal. I didn\u2019t have a certain weight in mind; I just wanted to go for walks with my friends.”<\/p>\n

Trammell says she\u2019s grateful to everyone she has encountered at the bariatric clinic, including Dr. Bright and Vulcan.<\/p>\n

\u201cI meet with Megan every year for my checkup,\u201d she says. “She is such a kind human being and has always been supportive. At my appointment last year, she gave me the greatest news: She said I have a normal life expectancy.”<\/p>\n

Vulcan\u2019s admiration is mutual.<\/p>\n

“Petra is a resilient person,” adds Vulcan. \u201cLast time I saw her she said, ‘I refuse to take this chance, this life for granted.’ I think that is such wonderful insight. I could see the transformation in her confidence. It was a beautiful thing to witness. She stands tall, holds her head differently and feels strong in her own body.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false,"gt_translate_keys":[{"key":"rendered","format":"html"}]},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
