... I used to get older records for my clients all the time. Did you check with hospitals where you were admitted while you were heavy? Sometimes those records will be microfilmed and stored off-site and take longer for them to retrieve, but it would be pretty irresponsible IMO for a hospital to destroy records so quickly ... I think the only times I couldn't get records because of passage of time they were 20 years or more ...
