Thanks Bill and Bobish for your replies. I have had one surgical consult with Dr. Rehnke myself and am impressed with the BCIR procedure and he said I would more than likely be a candidate for any of them, however once they get inside things could change due to internal structures and or issues. Luckily he is just about 30 min from where I live here in Florida. I am meeting with Dr. Julian Sanchez who is at Moffitt Cancer center on the 26th of this month for his medical opinion on which surgery he thinks is best for me. I have not decided yet which surgeon to go with as I do like them both. I will be going to Moffitt every 6 months for endoscopes with Dr. Pena there, as I have numerous polyps in my stomach and duodenum that he wants to keep a close eye on.

As for my size I am short and a bit overweight (chunky), I am not considered to be thin framed (although it would be nice lol).

Thank you both for the information and advice, I greatly appreciate it!
