Well, I had surgery on the 12th but when the dr cut into me, he seen my liver didn't look right, so

he took a biopsy of it and my gall bladder and my spleen and my intestines. Long story

short...they found that I have non alcoholic

fatty liver sirrosis.. stage 3. The dr said doing a bypass would have killed me... but I can get

the

sleeve done. the only thing that will help my liver is to lose weight or I will have to have a

transplant.

So, I go back to my surgeon on the 20th and I am hoping we can get right on to the sleeve,

and not let any more time pass.

Good luck, the sleeve will help you lose the weight and could resolve your liver issue.

Hope it happens soon for you.

Oh my, I imagine this was disappointing news to hear on so many levels. I'm sure it took a while to decided on bypass, only to learn it would cause more harm than good is a lot to wrap your head around. Then the new of the liver disease, which ironically only resolves with weight loss...which is exactly what you working on.

All the best the sleeve can be done successfully and you'll be on your way to reversing the effects of the liver condition! Keep us posted.

I am so sorry to hear, but extremely glad they were able to catch your disease before it killed you.

My surgeon said that the U.S. Has an epidemic of cirrhosis of the liver due to the over use of high fructose corn syrup.

Now that you have been diagnosed, I wish you all the best with your treatment and recovery.
