Thank you very much in regards to my post. Currently I am treating with 4 different doctors. My surgeon has been very good and accommodating. I agree a second opinion is needed. I am going to see Chief of gastric bypass surgery Shikora for a second opinion. I just started the process but thank god the records are from the same place. I Have never smoked a day in my life, I use to drink I miss it but don' t need further issues. I have taken the name of your daughter and put it in my iPad . I will let you know what is said. THANK U tons.
Well the best advice I can give you is, if your in the MA area the go see Dr David Lautz he works out of MGH and Emerson hospital now. He is one of the best bariatric surgeons in the world and has been known to fix issues other surgeons aren't able to I'm not saying you don't have a good surgeon but sometimes you need a second opinion. Also and no judgment especially because they didn't't even know this until recently but are you smoking? They have found smoking after weight loss surgery can cause bleeding ulcers in your pouch. Anyway good luck I hope this gets straightened out for you.
I also live in Webster! I had my surgery back on 2009. Feel free to get in touch with me!

my advice...appreciate the process...i wish i had kept a journal of my experience from start until now (3 years)...we change so much and it would have been awesome to have a log of how I changed and the process...take it all in...dont forget to do the head work that is needed to change...because if you dont change your head...the weight comes back.
Hi Everyone!!
I have my surgery scheduled for May 14th( as of right now could change lol) but I'm so anxious to get this done., I'm ready to start my life OVER again!!! I was heavier as a child but skinny all through high school. My boyfriend died when I was 23 years old and I lost it. Started drinking, eating, you name it. Then I got married and had a baby and that weight just compounded. I would yo-yo all the time. Lose 40 lbs gain it plus some but i'm almost 38 years old and Its time. I can't do this without help!!
