The risk of death

Jan 05, 2010

Hello to all.  I'm writing because I watched a few documentaries this weekend on bariatric surgery.  The discovery health network aired these shows.  One patient was over 940lbs, female and she went in for surgery at 840lbs.  Surgery went well, she was down to 816lbs after one week, then suddenly she died of a heart attack.  This has made me scared a little.  I keep thinking what if......  I'm still going to go through with the surgery if I ever get a date, but I want to know is there anyone who has had the same feelings?
