I have lurked over here a lot!  I had a stomach staple in 1979.  Of course that surgery has been outdated for years.  So for all this year I have been trying to get a revision to DS.  As of Monday I am approved by my insurance!  My surgeon just needs to give me a day!  I just wanted to share this with you because I know it is easy to lose hope.  Don't!!!!  It can be done! Hugs Paula

Paula, Congratulation!  Is there a reason you chose the DS over the RNY.

The reason I chose the DS over RNY is because the ewl is higher with the DS  (80% for the DS, 60% for RNY)  Plus everything that I can read tells me I will have a greater chance of keeping the weight off. I also like the fact that my eating will be on more of a normal pattern. Thanks for asking!
