I am scheduled for a bypass on July 12th. This was the choice I made with my surgeon for a couple of reasons. 1. I am a type 2 diabetic and the bypass has slightly better numbers concerning resolution of the effects of the disease. 2. Bypass carries it's own behavior modification program in the form of 'dumping', not pleasant I know, but I'm willing to use it to help steer me to better choices. Sometimes I feel weird when I go to support group and I'm the only one choosing rny. It's like all the cool kids go with the sleeve...lol...and I'm the nerdy weird one doing something different. Can't wait to get it done, though. You need to make the choice that will work for you, your body, and your health issues. Good luck!
