Guest guest Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Hey guys! For all that answered before, I truly appreciate it. Anyway, I am writting a research paper comparing the VBG to the Rny and could use your help - especially those that are further out (hello, all of us here are at least a year - or at least those that post). I understand that there are several different types of wls other than VBG and Rny, however because these are the most widely available that's why I am consentrating on these. Please answer these questions -you can email them to me directly if you want at abroward@.... 1) VBG or Rny? Date of wls? 2) How long did you research before having wls? 3) How many doctors did you see before choosing yours? 4) What were the deciding factors for you in choosing your wls? 5) Do you feel that you have been successful? (Knowing that the medical community feels that loosing 50% of excess weight is considered a success) 6) If you could do it over again, would you choose the same wls? Why or why not? 7) Have you had complications directly resulting from the wls? If so, what are they? 8) What co-morbidities did you have before wls? Do you still have those after loosing the weight? If so, are they worse/better? Anyway, I look forward to hearing your answers. I have re-learned a lot of information while researching this again. I really appreciate your help with this!
