PJ Kolehmainen 0 Posted December 10, 2010 I had plication because the weight loss results are similar to the sleeve. It leaves your stomach in tact, so if you get something like throat cancer your stomach tissue can be used. Also you don't have the concern of staple line seapage (plus I imagine that getting sleeved must hurt more). Thanks for the reply!! Valid point about the cancer I hadn’t even thought of that.

TijuanaPlication 87 Posted December 10, 2010 I'm 11 days out. I stayed in for 3 nights as I was in quite a lot of pain, but then the day I got out I flew to Vegas and was mostly off pain meds from then on! Thanks for the reply!!
