BILIO PANCREATIC DIVERSION same as DS???
New&Improved posted a topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
I've been looking all over my city. I'm in Australia I've only found one surgeon who mentions BILIO PANCREATIC DIVERSION which I've come to find is the original name for DS? AM I RIGHT or is there a little difference? I was so keen on RNY but now found DS would work best as my BMI is over 40!!? -
BILIO PANCREATIC DIVERSION same as DS???
New&Improved replied to New&Improved's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
That's crazy I should be okay I only need to lose max 150lbs -
I think that's the safest option and will give me the malabsorption to help I'd much rather go with an operation that is more common in Australia less complications etc
-
Spoken to multiple doctors in Adelaide none of them offer traditional DS! I DON'T KNOW if I can afford to go interstate. Planes and hotels etc surely RNY BYPASS is still good enough?

That's a great number

70 kg today, i dont think this much weight loss this quickly is good but iam now settling down , i suspect a lot of it is muscle loss, you are doing it in adelaide ? Travelling for work 5 days is my biggest challenge and a new wardrobe every 3 months Well that's what I'm hoping for. I need to lose 62kgs sooner the better so I can start a new life and gym regime to start to build some muscles

Questions about DS surgery
New&Improved replied to lessismore1001's topic in Duodenal Switch Surgery Forum
So even more severe malabsorption than RNY -
I'm so confused... I've been looking so much into the RNY but then I've heard about DS being even better for weight loss and the only thing I could find on a local doctor website was medlineplus.gov/ency/imagepages/19499.htm I'll have to ask if it is with DS or not or just regular BPD? What do you know about regular BPD? Tnx

Very curious to see people comment their surgery and total weight loss after 12 months? I'm leaning towards RNY BYPASS!

Thanks I'm just doing research it's a big decision

Be very mindful of everything you buy. If it's in a packet out a box is most likely processed so keep an eye on the label for any added sugar or carbs!!
