Are there any diseases/illnesses that could not be treated because you are sleeved?
You're wlcome. I don't know as much about RNY, but it seems like it might be harder to maintain optimal nutrition during treatment because of malabsorption issues. I would also ask the surgeon about whether the RNY pouch and intestinal rerouting would impair colonoscopy or upper GI diagnostics.

I remember a lady who did have a sleeve and cancer and her chemo went fine. With chemo it's a chore to find ANY food you can eat.
The further out you get the more you can eat so it's a matter of food intake no problem. I can only see FUTURE treatments as easier because you are no longer morbidly obese, etc.
