Hello my name is lisa im just starting the path to gastic surgery.Can some tell me why the sleeve goes from ur stomch up to your throat or maybe i was reading it wrong.I havent decide yet which surgery im going to get im sure i have along time to go

Hello im new at this i'm thinking of having gastric bypass surgery.I would like to know the good and bad of it.I'm 5'5 weight is 250.I havent talked to the gastric bypass team yet i want to know how long the prosse is and something about all the different surgery's thank you lisa

Thank you all for the advice.My mom had it and gained almost all her weight back but she eats alot of junk.sometimes her blood suger goes into the 40's and she has to eat like a protin to get to go back up and like she has alittle hair lose but not sure if thats from the surgery or not.I dont really want to have blood suger issue's but maybe it wont happen if i eat right.I'm not sure if i can pass all the requirments.I'm depression,ptsd,and bipolar.I have been stable now for about a yr.I just feel like the surgery will help with my highcholosetrol and aches and pain's.thanks again for your advice
