A BIG shout out to all the vets that helped me "guide" my daughter.

She has chosen to do the VSG...not because I steered her but because she had the opportunity to read all the feedback and all the links to info you guys shared.

I can never thank you all enough.

 That's great! but I have no idea what she wanted, I read the post, but had never heard of it and I don't know how to spell it. Would you explain it? 
Thanks!!!

She has a great role model. You've given so much great advice to all of us newbies!

Amber, the Plication is a surgery which "folds" the stomach into itself and is secured with stiches instead of cutting it out and securing with staples.

It is in the trial stages. I think it's been performed and documented for about 2-5 years but the feedback data is rather sketchy.

I'm so happy for both of you!  Good luck to her with the pre-op process.  She is lucky to have you as a tour guide

Revision on 02/09/12
I'm so relieved. I was very nervous when I read your post. Plication sounds like a terrible idea (and no I will not qualify it with "to each his own".)

She's gonna do great with the sleeve. How awesome!


Band (09/07) removed, revised to sleeve 2/9/12.
