just a little misinformation given -- with the RNY you can take NSAIDS -- just nothing long term -- but you can do a 7-14 days of NSAIDS if need be

and like tom said, RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!!!!! READ everything you come across -- good, bad and ugly -- and always keep in mind that when things are going good ppl are living life and not really posting as much -- but when something is bad then ppl are posting all the time in order to get info on the complication -- read read read -- find out WHY different surgeries didn't work for different ppl -- was it the surgery or was it noncompliance -- what other health factors do they have besides obesity -- how much do they have to lose -- how old are they -- there is so much that goes into an individual

and remember, everyone is an individual

good luck

Do your research!  I had the band and had it removed and revised to RNY due to severe reflux.  If you have reflux now, the band can intensify the reflux.

Good luck!
