Mal,
Took you 6 years to get your back fixed? I had my Open RNY in '99. I've had 7 spinal surgeries since, and am finally having the revision that I needed in 2000. We are mirror twins!

I see you posted almost half a year ago; have you had the surgery, yet? I had my surgery done at Boston Medical Center. I understand how you feel about doing it with regular diet and excercise as I said that myself for about 10 years prior to finally deciding to have the surgery. I am grateful though that I did have it in the end. BMC has a lot of support groups for those considering weight-loss surgery and those who have had it already. I encourage you to attend the groups regardless of where you had the surgery and even in the event that you decided to forego surgery.

Hi!
I had Open RNY 11/99. Feel free to ask anything. I just re-stumbled upon this site today, as I was looking up finally having the revision I was told I needed in 2000.
