Guest guest Posted October 9, 2001 Report Share Posted October 9, 2001 Hi All !! ReallyLady Luck is my I had a vertical banding gastric stapling about 16 years ago. If I knew then whatI know now, I never would have had it done. Well, I was wrong and I could have been dead wrong. I was also informed by the doctor that " I would surely kill myself with food. " In the name of " care and concern " doctors are raking in a mint with this surgery. I find it hard to believe that they " hesistently " preform the procedure. They say that the patient has barely a concern of the side efects. I finally had the valve removed . I really wanted the whole thing removed but the doctor said quote unqoute " Don't be so paranoid. You don't need it all out. " I wonder who's best interest that was in? Probably his pocket book as he has since moved to the States where this surgery is far more common and available. I truly wish that i had not of been so deceived. I bought a life time of medication and trouble, hook,line and sinker. Oh by the way Im only 30 lbs less than my highest weight. you tell me whether it was worth it or not. I know it was NOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
