You should know if you are on this list at all that we support the BPD/DS and will always warn anyone not getting that that they may be very unhappy afterwards. I understand now why you posted. But remember the portion above that says Duodenal Switch, too. I'm sorry it took so long for you to get your approval, but I bet your approval is an approval and not only for Dr. . Lee Anne, when you ask for opinions on something as controversial (to me and others) as the surgeon deciding to do something we think is going to give you a lesser life, we feel compelled to tell you how we feel. But, hey, if you are happy with the after life style you are going to get, that is your choice. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 Lee Anne, I would be so upset and PO'd and even WORSE if I had surgery scheduled for one procedure and the surgeon told me 2 days before that surgery that she decided to give me something entirely different and that my thinking my pyloric valve was important was making to much of it. I would be raving mad. I don't respect a surgeon who would do that. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
