Hello, My name is Erin.  I'm 23, and just got the experimental surgery for the v-bloc/empower study on May 5th.  (The one you see all the corny ads for on this website sometimes)  I'm still pretty sore and trying to adjust to not having a lot of strength, but definitely feeling better than I was 5 days ago.  I got my surgery at MCV.  Anyways, just thought I'd do a quick introduction!

Welcome!  Is this the study that is for five years?  We talked about it briefly at one of our bypass meetings.  I had my RNY at MCV.  :)
