You also mentioned other treatment options. I know you can't mean the RNY or other things. What other treatments are you talking about? Another diet doesn't work and this is all I feel I have left. Is there such a thing as an open MGB? Without this, all i see for me in the future is continued weight gain, more co-morbidities and an unhealthy and unhappy life. I respect your decision in this matter and know I cannot force the issue. I guess I shouldn't continue to waste my time filling out the packet nor yours in having to turn me down and will cancel all the test I have schedule for this week. > *****Melody****** Please do not give up. I am here to help you if I can. I am in the same boat as you and the weight loss has leveled off. I am very discouraged, but I am going to keep trying. Please do not go to another doctor. Dr. Rutledges procedure greatly outweighs ever other one. Call me, e-mail me whatever you have to do. I am here to help in anyway I can. home 803 613-0520 With Love, Lara M.
