I hope this finds everyone well and enjoying this amazing weather we've had (even the T-storms--I love them!)!
Just wanted to pop in and say hello and let you all know that I saw Dr. Mo today to discuss the newest recurrence of ulcers (ugh). 
He can do nothing more for me at this point except reversal.  So, he wants me to see a surgeon at Johns Hopkins to see what they say.  If the JH doc says to reverse, then I will reverse.
My hope is that there is some cutting edge new thing out there to treat a "special" patient like myself.  :-)  I'm at the end of the line and out of options.  If there are no other options...I will reverse because I can't live like this-in pain all of the time.
Prayers are appreciated. 
Thanks All!

Morning Lisa!  Glad to hear you have met with Dr. Mo and are looking into your options.  I am sure you are exhausted with dealing with the pain and ready to move on.  Is there any way to switch surgeries, perhaps to the band?  I hope that the solution comes soon and you are pain free.

I will keep you in prayer and John Hopkins is an excellent hospital. I pray you will be pain free and that there is another option for you.

Lisa,

Glad you are still looking into your options.  I would also suggest that you talk to Dr Hutcher.  He is one of the inventors of this surgery.  His opinion is invaluable to me and I trust him completely.  I'd even be happy to meet you at his office if you wanted.  Good luck with whatever you decide.
