PLEASE READ FROM DEE URGENT!!!
By your own tall tales (looked through your latest posts, which is easy because you only post when you need something, BTW) and captured here for new readers:
You allegedly had a revision from a RNY that worked and got you within 15 pounds of goal, but you couldn't maintain the lifestyle (exercising more than 10 hours a week, eating next-to-nothing).
So, you begged an out-of-the-country surgeon (paid him $10,000) to give you a DS revision for those last 15 pounds and then immediately post-op started eating massive amounts of carbs a day. Then you had bad breath, gas and bloating. Shocker.
Then you posted here almost monthly about your alleged gas, bloat and breath problems. Nice people offered you help, you dissed them repeatedly. They told you about carbs, probiotics, white flour, etc. You could have given a crap less. You never responded to them. You offer no help or support to anyone on this entire site, only come here repeatedly for your self-inflicted problems. Hmmm...yeah. Sounds like carbs are not your only problem.
I love your post today. "Please read from Dee Urgent!" Since you don't ever offer help to anyone here, no one knows who the hell you are. It's only the "urgent" that will make anyone look, because that's how this group is. They want to help people. And you have taken advantage of that, even in this dumb post. Just look at the nice people who jumped on it right away, trying to help.
There are people literally dying, waiting for their DSes. They are willing to be compliant. They help other people with advice and support, even if they have been waiting for YEARS for their DS. AND they're gracious about it. And you pull this crap?
If you are a troll trying to stir up trouble, you are a piece of crap. If you are legitimate, shame on you. And you can stick today's pathetic PM to me up you stinky, carb-filled ass.

'Dee' was busy today; Nicolle wasn't the only one that got a PM today from her.
As a policy I don't post PMs, but if 'Dee' keeps up her trolling / lying / trashing the DS ways, the PM will be posted everywhere she shows up.

You will find that we are an amazingly supportive community, offering help at every turn. By the same token, people like Dee / Paul need to be kept in check. As you noticed / expressed, their experiences are not the norm, but far from it, almost unbelievable really. Whether self-induced or complete fallacy, it is not something that pre-ops should be faced with.
Good luck on your insurance approval, and your journey to better health!

Oh! Oh! And don't forget that 'Dee' couldn't have a virgin DS because of her anatomy, and had to settle for a RnY. But, then MIRACLE!!! At a 30 BMI, she flew to Brazil and had her RnY revised to a DS. Huh??
Don't even get me started on her alleged sister's problems with dying DS intestines, that she posted about on the Main Board, instead of the DS forum. You know, that sister in AZ, that also flew to Brazil for a revision to the DS, but can't seem to call or email her surgeon in Brazil or find a capable DS surgeon close to her?
Troll -or- Liar -or- Idiot?
Take your pick.
I don't have use for anyone like this.
She has done nothing but waste a lot of good people's time and good intentions.

Topic: Do the small intestines Die???
I am trying to get to the bottom of my sister's problem. I do not get to spend a lot of time with her so here goes!!! Is it possible that the small intestines could be dying since they were tied off? Do they still have blood supply? What if any is there function? She has had a Revision from a RNY, to a DS.

Topic: Please can someone answer my question?
Hi all,I recently had a revision from a RNY to a BPD with out a switch because of complications so the switch part was not possible for me. My problem is my stoma is so streached out i litterely cant get full. The food emptys so fast every 15 minutes I am eating. I had the stomaphxy before my BPD to see if that would help, it didnt at all ,I waisted $8,000 on that procedure. My question is , Is their a experienced Doctor who has done revisions on the stoma ONLY to make it tighter so food stays in longer so I can go a few hours without eating like normal people? I am again so depressed because of this . Please can someone give me any help maybe a name of a doctor who has done this Thank you for any replys!
