need some help for a friend

[Guest guest]

I have a friend who just recently had a lap rny. She had compications. Her

ileum shut down and she ended up with bi-lateral pneumonia. Now she is home

and suffering from terrible nausea. She is getting very discouraged. She

very badly needs to talk to someone who has had this sort of complication and

has

come through it.

I had lap RNY but without any complications. And, the complications

your friend is suffering from are not the kind you usually hear about

such as leaks or incision infections. If I were your friend I would

try to see a more experienced bariatric surgeon for a 2nd opinion

about how to proceed. Her condition sounds pretty serious but of

course I am not a doctor.
