I have been overweight my entire life. I found my first grade report card and I already weighed 100 pounds at age 6. I have yoyo dieted for years and finally decided to try WLS. I had my consult with Dr P( Barix) at the beginning of April 2007. When I went in for surgery on August 30th, Dr P found a spot on my liver. I went back to work on September 5th - awaiting the biopsy results. It turned out to be nothing, and I was back in for my gastric bypass on September 17th. I went back to work on September 24th.
I was readmitted to Barix on September 26th due to internal bleeding. I had to get blood and iron transfusions. I got all of my drama out of the way and have had smooth sailing since. I quit smoking and drinking for the surgery and I can not thank Dr P enough. I am so glad she helped me get rid of those habits.
