How dangerous is the gastric bypass surgery?

Answer 1

Homeopathic Treatment for Excessive Fat and Weight :-
PHYTOLACCA BERRY's Mother Tincture is perhaps the safest and sure fire way of loosing excessive fat around abdomen. With Phytolacca Berry once you loose the excessive fat and weight you don't get it back because you body takes care of itself after that and keeps you from gathering up excessive fat. It is prescribed after having a baby too, to get the tummy to loose its flab and to make it flatter and tighter. And after loosing weight with this you don't get flabby it tightens up the flab and skin along with helping your body to shed the excessive accumulation of fat around the girth
The dosage is 15 to 20 drops of the tincture in half a cup of hot water thrice a day half hour before or after meals.
Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints, Red Meat and Carbonated and Alcoholic drinks while taking Homeopathic Medicines. You have to take it for at least 30 to 45 days after that you start to feel the results.
To the best of my knowledge its the safest and the most sure fire way of loosing fat and weight and keeping it of for keeps. Excellent remedy for Obese people who cant seem to shed weight despite trying.
Homeopathic Remedies can be found at all Major Herbal Stores or could be bought on line, In most of the world Homeopathic remedies are quite cheap and easy to find and they do not need a prescription.
Take care and God Bless !

Hi there! First....do your surgery in a hospital. This way there is an emergency room right there in case anything should happen. Don't go to any of these little centers because they don't have emergency rooms. Second...I had gastric bypass in May 2000, and lost 120 pounds. I've been doing great, and have only gained back 10 pounds of what I lost, which I hope to relose here soon. My smallest I was able to get into a size 8 pant (now wear 10). I highly recommend getting the open surgery rather than the lapryscopic surgery (done by the cameras). This way your doctor can check out everything else inside your body. My doctor has found cancer in people that didn't know they had cancer while doing the open, which the lap one wouldn't have found. Also, do not do the lap band. I've heard that after awhile, it can eventually eat into your skin and disappear...kind of gross when you think about it. A good surgery website to visit is www.obesityhelp.com It has everything from explinations of the different kinds to where you can get it done, to how to handle your insurance company. Good luck, and I do have to say that it changed my life for the better, and i'm glad I did it! =)

It works well. I know two people who have lost a lot of weight that way. The down side is, it almost killed one of them, but those were complications from altering the work from a previous surgery. It's a lot safer than it used to be, but a 1:200 fatality is nothing to scoff at. Surgery really should be a last resort, but there is no shame in having it done. Screw the other assholes, the person having the surgery is getting healthy, and that's the important thing. And do not give the hippy medicine guy your email or listen to his advice. Just a bad idea. Anyways, if you are the one considering the operation, you gotta do what ever will work for you and get you to a healthy weight. Congrats for taking the initiative to do something about it!

Answer 4

ANY surgery has its risks. I have heard of people's lives becoming SO much better because of the surgery, I have also heard of a few cases of people dying...

I guess you have to outweigh the risks. For example, if you weigh over 400 lbs and can't even move, then it could be a life saving surgery. The benefits outweigh the risks in that case, because the person could have a heart attack or stroke at any moment otherwise. Not to mention diabetes.

And for anyone who says that having Gastric Bypass Surgery is taking the "easy way out: should just shut the hell up. They don't know each person's situation. I personally wouldn't do it at this point in my life, but think about it: Putting yourself through such a huge and potentially life threatening operation takes some major courage. More power to them for trying to improve the quality of their lives.

We have no right to judge anyone's decisions but their own.

Another word of advice:research your surgeon VERY carefully. Don't go by cost alone....if your insurance won't pay for it, then cost will of course be a factor. However, you want someone who is very experienced in this and who has performed hundreds of succesful procedures.

Also, be prepared to get some counseling after because you will literally be "mourning" the loss of your favorite foods. You can still eat them, but you will find out real quick when you've had too much. You still have to learn to eat healthy and eat enough protein, etc. You will want to work with a good Nutrionist for this.

Answer 5

It is not for everyone! I am 2 years out from my bypass surgery and down 130 lbs. 36 yrs old and now have a 6 month old daughter since I am so fertile now. Everything went fine.

I no longer deal with the diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholestrol I had before my surgery. It is risky but when your doctor says loss weight now or die in 5 yrs there is not alot of choice. It was the best thing for me.

Do not have it to look better. You will probably have loose skin issues.

Answer 6

Risk of death is pretty high. Death is estimated at 1 in every 200 surgeries. I was not aware of this until a good friend's husband died this past January due to complications with his operation. I know another person with Lap-Band who has been very successful and is much less invasive. If surgery is your last resort, I would look more into Lap-Band.

Answer 7

It is a very safe surgery nowadays.Gastric Bypass Surgery/gastrectomy/lapband (all types of weight loss surgery) is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges obesity surgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.

I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as obesity surgery is not covered by insurance.They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your lobesity surgery can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

My cousin got her obesity surgery in India throughth e forerunners healthcare .SHe is more than very happy with the results.She has lost 55lbs in 5 months.She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company.hope this helps

Answer 8

A doctor once claimed that 1 out of every 200 patients die from this surgery. Doesn't sound real safe to me.

Answer 9

It is like any other surgery, there is always the possiblity of serious problems on the table and problems with recovery. It is going to hurt and there might be scarring. I really suggest talking with your doctor thoroughly!
