Sorry to disagree with everyone, but there is no way that anyone had

this surgery longer than 4-5 years ago...not THIS RNY surgery......if

someone had something 20 years ago, that was the stomach stapling not

RNY....if they had it 6 years ago (I doubt it but...) then they were one

of the very FIRST to have it done because this surgery has not been

around that long....that's why insurance companies think it's too

" risky " .
