I thought that she might have had him. When I called his office his

secretary had no clue about the DS and seemed to think the surgery he did

was wonderful.

I do not have ICQ but am happy to speak to your friend either by phone or

email. It concerns me that she does not have much support. The positive

thing in all this is that with the weight loss she should see an improvement

in her diabetes which will help her overall health. I am interested though

in the regimen the doc has given her as far as food intake, etc. If she has

the procedure I think she has, eating bananas and not much at all is going

to not help her in the least. She is more prone to protein deficiencies

than DS patients and should be focusing on really high quality food and

supplements to maintain her health.

I am happy for you to give her my email, if she wants it, Karin and please

let me know if I can help at all, OK? Take care!
