I think U are right being scared of the bypass though it DOES work wonders with chronic hiatal hernia repairs ( did for me ) . But your average RNY just takes and keeps off a litle bit of weight ... and the malabsorption stops after two years . But there ARE other RNYS .
My husband has a twelve year old distal bypass that has allowed him to lose and keep off 150 lbs plus . He refuses to exercise and everything he eats is wrong... still his weight is holding and hes healthy excepting HBP and diabetes . If i were you this is the operation I would consider .
Basically it acts as a DS ... he eats a DS type menu with malabsorption of fats ...
