Revision/Surgeon Referral
Hi everyone. I apologize if this is a re-post. New to this board. I'm 5 years post op. Went from 385lbs day of surgery to 168.5lbs as of yesterday. I've had alot of malnutrition problems secondary to chronic proteinemia. I simply cannot tolerate most prepartions of protein supplements. I've tried literally thousands of dollars worth of products. The closest I've found is a protein powder chicken noodle soup and those prepackaged protein supplemented milks. I should probably have been on TPN for the 3rd time 6 months ago but the doctor's here in Ketchikan Alaska just don't have the experience with bariatric pt complications. I can see surgeons in Seattle with the blessing of my insurance company. I would greatly appreciate an suggestions of an experience DS surgeon, preferably someone who specializes in revisions. I'm also happy to just chat about the experiences I've had in general.
