Does Xenical work?

I know this isn't a topic on WLS surgery but I thought it might be a good place to ask some questions about xenical. I know people here have tried many different ways to lose weight (just like myself). I recently went to my doctor and brought up my intrest in WLS. Instead of support he gave me a prescription for xenical (I couldn't really tell if he was for WLS or against it). I have tried many diets, programs, pills, etc. My doctor is well aware of them all also. But never Xenical. Has anyone ever had sucess with using xenical or may know of someone that has? After looking it up on the internet I didn't get the impression that there is much sucess with this drug. If anyone has comments they could share with there experience on xenical it would be helpful. I know my insurance does not cover it that is why I am looking for info before I spend big bucks on another diet that may do nothing for me like all of my past attempts. Thanks!
