My wife Lillian had her upper & lower GI done today.  They did this after they found a "red spot" on her colon a few weeks ago.  The doctor told us today that when he went in, he found out that it was a small pollip and he took it out.  The upper GI looked fine and he took a biopsy of her small intestine to see if it was absorbing iron properly (she is low on iron and they currently don't know why).  The surgon gave her the OK for WLS .  Because of the iron issue, Lillian is leaning toward the Lap Band instead of the bypass.  I put a call into the surgeon to see if there's any problem changing the procedure with the insurance.  If everything goes OK, Lillian's surgery date is April 23rd.  She's relieved (and so am I).
