I found an interesting blog describing all the bad things that weight loss surgeries do to the body. It was an interesting read and I wanted to see if the Vets had any insight on this. She seems a very passionate about what she writes. Anyway here is the Blog....http://suethsayings.blogspot.com/. Have any vets had any of the problems she stated?

BM is bowel movement.

I am not hungry. Every so often I get signs that I am hungry but it is infrequent. I am one of the lucky ones post sleeve as my hunger has not returned.

I had a sleeve nearly 3 months ago.

I am very happy with it.

Had a complication. My heart went into A -Fib.

Taking mads for it now. I have cardio aversion scheduled next month. I hope it works.

If it does not. I will have exchanged a high probability of heart attack for a low probably of a stroke.

A good deal in my mind.

No surgery or procedure is with out risks. You have to weigh the risks/ rewards.

Good luck.

I hope you get some good news. But it sounds like even if you don't you're already looking on the bright side.

To me, your point I swell taken....that of all the risks of WLS, the risks of staying obese are much higher.

Thank you all for your input and for making this post so informative. It definately is something that everyone needs to think about before they commit to surgery. If we feel she is crazy or not it had everyone thinking in one way or another. That is the great thing about debating or peacefully disagreeing.
