Reply to "Gastric Sleeve with J-Pouch?"

Hi Kharma,

I am not very sure about this but I think that having a j pouch might just make any sort of bariatric surgery rather dangerous (I am no expert here).

We already have a compromised digestive tract...that said, I understand the frustration that you must be feeling about not being able to control your weight or cravings.

There are other methods that may help you to lose the weight without putting your health into further danger...something less invasive and more temporary...like the lapband may work just as well without you having any of your gut removed.

I have a lot of friends who have had great success with it and I know for a fact that it can be tightened, loosened or removed if need be...so it won't compromise your system.

I am a true believer in diet and exercise whenever possible but I also know that not everyone has the wherewithal to carry through with a program.

Talk to your doctor about options but never, ever put your health at risk.
