This is the duodenal switch forum, so that's the procedure you're going to hear about on this board. You might try posting your question on the main board: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/amos/ and on the ON board: http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/on/ .

I know someone who had it done when I lived in Kuwait. He had a horrible time with it. Most days he could do little else but drink his food so he lived on protein shakes. Oh he lost a lot of weight but man! He was sick all the time, lived on antacids and actually ate very little real food.
