Topic: RE: What is a fobi pouch?
I want to learn out about the fobi pouch, too. I'm scheduled for a gastric sleeve resection in June, but it's very difficult to research the procedure with that terminology. It sounds like a fobi pouch, though, except the stomach is made smaller and "stapled."
If I find out anything helpful, I'll tell you!

Topic: RE: Need Info about Fobi....Surgery next week
Hi Tamara,
My sister in California had the Fobi pouch and is doing fine. She's not skinny my any means though. If I were you though, I would find a forum about the Fobi. You do need to get allot of information quick, fast and in a hurry if you are getting the procedue on the 23rd. I did not know that they were performing this procedure in Ohio though.
