MGB'ers who have or had Fatty Liver Disease- 6 questions

[Guest guest]

I'd like to pose these questions to those of you who,

like me, may have had a shortened bypass due to " Fatty

Liver Disease " .

1. Have you had a hard time losing with the MGB?

2. Have you heard anything about the liver's

inability to process the fat from our bodies as

possibly being why we are losing at such a slow pace?

3. Were you caught unaware of a problem with your

liver prior to your MGB as your pre-surgery blood

tests (and or physical examination) did not indicate

you had a fatty liver or a liver problem?

4. Have any of you sought medical advice from a liver

specialist or further testing on your liver due to the

Fatty Liver Disease? If so, what tests were

performed?

5. About how long did it take for you to recover from

Fatty Liver Disease post MGB?

6. How many of you have had revisions due to this

problem and how did you know prior to your revision

that your Fatty Liver Disease had cleared up?

Thank you to those of you who may respond. I am

looking for more information and sometimes

collaborative efforts can be extremely helpful
