Guest guest Posted August 18, 2001 Report Share Posted August 18, 2001 Hi Carole, You probably saw my reply to that woman and the list serve owners retort. Essentially, we were told to shut up. There have been questions raised about that surgeon. I don't believe that the woman in question would have brought up the issue if it didn't bother her. I don't have the impression that she is very comfortable with abandoning the DS option. I agree that she seems to believe that the Holy Spirit is operating through one doctor's opinion and I find that disconcerting. I am new to this list, by the way, and would love to hear good and bad reviews of Dr. Herron at Mount Sinai. I have an appointment there on November 1. I hate to put it this way, but my chief worry concerns bowel movements! I worry that things will be uncontrollable after surgery. I first subscribed to WLS-uncensored but that was simply bizarre. I hope to learn much from all of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I have only heard good things about Dr. Herron. I have decided to go more locally but originally was going to see Dr. H. I think we all are concerned about bowel movements. My surgery is Thursday and I still worry about them. On a positive note, I have started taking acidophilus to help build the good floura in my intestines. You see, I have a very sensitive stomach already. Good luck with your consult in November! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2001 Report Share Posted August 18, 2001 Yes Carole - WLS uncensored is hosted by a woman named Sue W. who also has some 'truth telling websites'. She has not had WLS and seeks to inform others of the dangers, especially ghastly future ones she anticipates that physicians don't know about yet. She seeks to 'save others' from 'mutilating their intestines'. I think she has too much time on her hands... I have already learned quite a lot on this list, thanks to all of you.

I was on her list and I quit after one day. > This one is much better and you will learn A LOT! She's pretty much a freak of nature, but sometimes it's good to hear the anti-WLS arguments. It strengthened my resolve and made me investigate some of her wacked-out claims. Now that I'm pretty firm in my decision, though, I think I'm goign to unsub from there. alyssa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
