Guest guest Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 Joe You are not the only one with this type of theory. One line of thought was he had a Whipple procedure (removal of bottom of stomach, part of the pancreas and bile ducts) due to pancreatic cancer. This procedure can cause a back wash of bile's into the remaining stomach causing problems. So the line of thought is that his recent last surgery he had a gastric bypass to correct the bile backwash problem. After all...wls came about as a result of doctors doing cancer surgery and finding patients lost weight, then they started tweaking the surgery specifically for weight-loss. http://calorielab.com/news/2008/07/30/steve-jobs-health-gastric-bypass/ Hugs Jo > > I find I keep looking for surgery results everywhere, but doesn't this > report about Steve Jobs, president of Apple, sound a lot like someone > who's had surgery and not taking his supplements? > " He was one real sick guy,'' one of the WSJ's sources said. > " Fundamentally he was starving to death over a nine-month period.
