HI, I have read allot of posts today, I am Pre surgery started this week with seminars and have first DR appt Monday.. Herts my question for mostn of you ? How do the bowels react for you ?? Is there allot of "Dumping - Diarehha? " My fears are this subject because I travel all over the Nation and Canada for work and flightsm, airports and travel in general can be very difficult when you have this problem. Two years ago I had a lg. colon resection and it has taken over a year for the bowel to become normal again. WT loss is so important to me and I desperatly want this surgery to live again at a normal wt, but the bowels are a concern????
