My mom died from complications several years after having the bypass surgery. I don't know whether the doctors will connect the two, but I do. Maybe do an online search for gastric bypass related fatalities and see what you come up with?

I don't know, but I didn't. I had virtually no problems with my surgery, physically. My recovery was very fast.
Unfortunately 8 years later I regained about 1/2 the weight from slacking off of using proper eating habits and getting out of the exercise routine. But I am back on track and losing in a healthy way this time.

LOOK IT UP ON THE NET AND SEE, YOU WON'T DIE FROM IT IF YOU FOLLOW YOUR DIETS, AND DO WHAT YOU ARE TOLD TO DO BY THE DOCTORS.
