Intestinal Bypass
Posted: 05-31-06 20:51pm

Hello,
today is my birthday and I dont know if I am gonna live to see the next one if I dont get some answers or some help from somewhere or someone. I have been a nurse for 32 years and would never treat anyone the way I have been treated because of ability to pay. Because this surgery is no longer done due to so many deaths linkedto side effects no one knows what todo with me. The pain gets so intense sometime that I pass out. I really dont know how much longer I can stand living like this

Happy birthday to you! May I ask then, why would you want an intestinal by-pass, I am no dr but I have heard a lot of people say that they have had a lot of problems after there by-pass? I understand what you mean by pain, I live with it 24/7. I hope that they can find somethin else soon.

Thank , sandy, I had a intestinal bypass on my 18th birthday in 1972. I weighed 320lbs, hypertension, asthma, gastric ulcer . Doctors said I would be dead in two years if I continued the way I was going. Have been relatively one of the miracle cases until recently. I am looking for someone that is familar with this type of surgery forsome help
