Guest guest Posted September 22, 2000 Report Share Posted September 22, 2000 I definitely do not get the impression that LT is unbalanced.I believe she is just very upset.I do not believe she is nearly as upset about her losses as her Barrett's Esophagus.Keep in mind she has physicians telling her that the Barrett's is a classic side affect of the Billroth II.We all know there is the risk of death,leaks,malnutrition etc,but we have to recognize that there are other risks.We will possibly have to live with them for the rest of our lives.For myself, my BMI is 47,so I must weigh all of my risks.Any weightloss surgery might not be a good idea for some and for others it is a personal decision then there are those like myself where the alternative of 150 lbs overweight will kill me anyway plus I'll be miserable in the process.
