To those of you considering this surgery,
Please do your homework. This surgery is not for everyone. If you tend to be sick a lot, the person things always happen to... etc...
My surgery went well. I know of 8 other people who have had this surgery... Two have had difficulties; one has trouble swallowing. The other has been in the hospital from the instant she got off the airplane and has not been able to go home after 3 weeks in the hospital. She will hopefully be sent home tomorrow with a feeding tube going down her nose to her small intestine while her stomach heals after 3 additional surgeries to repair damage to her stomach and infection.
I am happy with my surgery. I am extremely healthy and active. Most of the people I know who come out of this who are active do not have problems. It appears to be people who are not very active.
I just ask you think about this decision. It is a life changer anyway you look at it. Good Luck!
Namaste
