I think that when I get home and am feeling up to it, I might scout out some of those " other " boards for people who have not yet chosen a surgery and then offer them the duodenal switch web site for more information. All it takes is a " Have you considered this other option? " It really could save someone from a terrible choice. >> Hey - if you guys will look back at how this all started, that is exactly what I did. And I got a letter stating that the woman researched DS and thought RNY was better for her because she *wanted * to dum and *wanted* a different relationship to food. So, I posted parts of her letter (w/o her name) here and said I just didn't get it. Then I got blasted by graydowney for not allowing people to research and saying that all wls is the same and we aren't doctors so how could we know anything..........and it took off from there. I never told anyone they were stupid, even tho I might think they are. All I told them was, stop saying that we do not have the right to say DS is better when you are *on* a DS board, and if you want the RNY after reading all the " bad stuff " RNY people live with, GO FOR IT!
