Erik Dutson I met Dr. Dutson one time,a year ago. He was very informative and helpful. I am going back to him next month. I had some with ins. I also, needed time to decided what surgery to have.
Hello, My name is Cathy. I had the lap band surgery in 2003. I am now seeking a revision to the RNY. (please see my comments about surgeons I would not use). The lap band is a great tool but not for me. I am a mother of five. I am in college going for my AA degree in criminal justice. I am here for support and to make new friends.
I got my autherization for my revision from lap band to RNY. I only need the psyce evaluation. I am looking forward to being on the losing side again. Hopefully real soon.
My best friend died on Saturday 4/26/08. As I write this I still can't believe she is gone. My friend Candy was a sweet and kind person. She died because of her weight. She like me and so many others struggled with weight all of their life. Candy weight was approximently 475 plus. To the people that say that it wrong to have gbs. STOP! I do not want to die from my weight. Yes, I do know that gbs can cause other health problems. I rather live life to the fullest then sit on the side lines and watch life and people go by. Candy could not do much caring the weight around. She lost out on so much including her life. Her family and friends expecialy her 18 year old daughter will miss out on a life time of love and laughter with Candy.She will be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO missed! My she Rest in Piece. Love always your friend, Cathy
