My first blog
Hi everyone. I am brand new to blogging, and am doing it for a college class. When asked to choose my subject, that was fairly easy. I am in the process of preparing for gastric bypass surgery. I am hoping to find out information and others experiences on this subject. This has not been an easy path for me to take. I have been determined as medically complicated obese by the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. This has made my journey much more difficult. I look forward to receiving any input that is offered.

What an interesting blog topic. Maybe we can all help along the journey…..
Is this of the reversible kind? If I remember correctly, my friend’s wife had the Lap Band, which is adjustable and also reversible.
Thankfully, this surgery is now widespread and should be an almost routine procedure.
Best wishes!
We are not planning on this being the reversible kind. The only way I would have that surgery is if my blood counts show that it is too dangerous to do the kind you can’t reverse. My mother also had the Lap Band recently, and is doing great.
HI,I HAVE JUST DISCOVED THIS TYPE OF SURGRY ONE CAN HAVE AND YES I AM VERY CURIOUS TO SEE HOW YOU ARE FEELING NOW? ITS A GREAT IDEA TO HAVE A BLOG DONE. I AM ALSO THINKING TO HAVE THE OPERATION DONE SOON. BUT I AM STILL WORRIED OF THE SIDE AFFECTS ONE MAY HAVE IN LATER LIFE.
HERE IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE ITS A VERY RECENT AFFAIR.
WAS WONDERING IF YOU KEW WHEN WAS THE FIRST TIME THIS KIND OF SURGERY WAS PREFORMED IN YOUR COUNTRY?
WOULD LOVE TO RECEIVE SOME FEEDBACK.
THANK YOU CAROLYN
