sleeve or bypass

Welcome to our LW Board!!! 

I could have easily went back to work after my RNY. 

Thanks everyone. I have fibromyalgia and am just really afraid that the more intense the operation the more flare ups I will have.  I also have a fatty liver that isn't working too well so I'm worried about that too.  I guess I'll leave it up to the doctor and trust in his/her (haven't met yet) decision.

 

I do have the ability to work from home but haven't even told my boss about this yet so waiting to see what happens. I really want to be able to stop injecting insulin and to exercise. My feet are so bad I can barely walk with the pain so maybe if there's less of me for them to carry i can walk the beach every night again.

 

btw I love this forum - everyone seems so very nice!

The DS is your best bet for a permanent cure for diabetes.  There's more info on that here http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/diabetes/3751535/If-you-ar e-Type-2-and-considering-WLS/

I'm still in the getting qualified stage and I chose the sleeve because with the band there's more risk of slipping, and further possible surgeries. And the bypass is a lot more invasive with a lot more vitamins after surgery which I don't like taking pills. So good luck in decision making.
