I Can't Believe I'm Asking This... (Crossposting)

[Guest guest]

What about getting the RNY and if/when the

side-effects get too much and really cause quality of

life issues, go back to the insurance company with

this and then ask for a revision (is that what it is?)

to a DS?

Medically, can it be done?>>>>>

Once you have the RNY you have totally butchered your stomach and that part

will never be normal. The only thing is they can fix the bowel part if

there is a problem.

I was thinking today about this very thing and came to the decision if I had

no choice would I take the RNY? Probably not due to the fact that once they

remove the pyloric valve you are more likely to get cancer of the pancreas.

Its not something I would want to deal with now that Im watching my aunt die

from this horrible disease!

I was just sitting here, hoping hoping hoping that I

end up with a DS but realizing it just many not happen

due to my HMO when I had a thought... This would be

only if every appeal is exhausted...

Also, I was wondering if we are now allowed to sue

HMOs for negligence? I know it was in the papers for

awhile but I haven't heard anything in a long time.

Thanks,
