It's been 3 years since my daughter Meg suffered a catastrophic brain injury from complications after WLS. Her condition is called Wernicke's Encephalopathy, and it is permanent. It was caused by vitamin B1 (thiamine) deficiency due to excessive vomiting. There are more and more cases of this being seen every day. Please, if you are having complications, don't let a doctor blow you off as the did us. Thiamine is so very important.
Here's what she looks like today.
