Hi,

I'm new to this site.

After undergoing 4 revisions, I finally threw in the towel and had a "takedown" of my BPD in 89'. Most of the stomach was removed. I now have nasty physical side effects. I'd like to find out what other "reversed" people are experiencing. There is a lack of info about long term reversed WLS pts.

Hi,
Feel free to check out my page/blog on here...I have had two reversals, and still suffer long term complications.  I'm sorry to hear that you are suffering, each person I see suffering from this makes me ill :( Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.  Good luck, and I have two words for you: Cleveland Clinic

Thanks Jules,
Boy, you've been through it too...
I'm seeing docs at  UCLA and Cedars Sinai. I just had a DBE (Double Balloon Enteroscopy). Think garden hose length. They found a flat lesion but forgot to biopsy it! At least the doc self flagellated and apologized. I think I'm cursed... I work in the med field and know CC's rep but I have HMO ins. I had to fight to get the out of network referral to Cedars. So, we'll see.
What is causing your abdominal pain? I've had several pts with infected, spinal cord stim. implants. Hope you feel better.
