  1. I have been loosing hair!!!! at 5 mos out. Was advised to take zinc and biotin. Check with your doc but Im praying it helps
  2. <BR>I think you hit nail on head when you said you could do your own research. Research on any surgeon would be highly recommended. I choose Dr aceves after many months of research. I specifically chose him because OF THE NUMBER OF VSG HE HAS PERFORMED with LOW TO NO COMPLICATION RATE.<BR>The transportation and safety issues also contributed to decision. Recovering in the hospital and closure technique was important to me. Leak testing material is also a consideration.<BR>Just as a FU note I mentally prepared myself for any complication including death and I am very pleased that I was blessed with an uncomplicated operative and post- op period.<BR>4 weeks ago i went to emergency room acute Gallblabber was admitted and had no opportunity to research my surgeon. I had to return due to post op bleed- second surgery. have had Bile leak and now have infection. So it cannot be stressed enough that surgery is serious bussiness and complications can and do occur.<BR>My local surgeons partner mentioned perhaps i should have had my GB done in Mexico, Maybe he was right!!!!
