[Guest guest]

Thanks, Colleen. I know the DS gives good results, but some people say the

RNY does too. I wonder if any RNY vs. DS studies have been done.

Go to this link http://www.duodenalswitch.com/Procedure/procedure.html

and scroll down til you come to Dr. Hess' 1998 report. You can click

on a link to see the highlights, or view the entire report. I printed

it out when researching the DS, and it was marked all over with my

yellow high-lighter! There is medical documentation in there

following 440 DS patients with different starting BMI's and co-morbs

over a period of 10 years.

Hope this helps
