Hi ,

Welcome to

the group! I had the surgery last September and have no regrets. The surgery

has risks like any other. The most important thing you can do, is find a VERY

reputable and experienced surgeon. This is what will make all the difference!!

Where are you from – maybe someone can recommend a surgeon/GI to you?

Hugs,

in BC

Hello,

I am and newly diagnosed. I was dialated in

early August but I

think I am deteriating again. Not a day goes by

and I need to bring

food back up. It is embarrassing. My friends have

been a great strength

for me.

I am concerned about the surgery and will it cause

other problems?

I am sorry Ann has been left to go for so many

years, and am thankful I

didn't have to wait so long. I know how I felt so

lost and lonely

trying to cope until being diagnosed.
