"Although serotonin is manufactured in the brain, where it performs its primary functions, some 90% of our serotonin supply is found in the digestive tract and in blood platelets."
I am not a doctor, but I have had GI problems for years. I bought a book over five years ago, called "The Second Brain", by Michael D. Gershon, MD. He and a few other researchers have been studying the digestive system, and its enteric system, including Hirschsprungs Disease, and the role of serotonin in the digestive system. |

My ex-wife had VSG (vertical sleeve gastronomy) for bariatric surgery. It worked wonders for her, she went from a size 22 to size 4 in 1 year. She did keep with the strict diet for it also and as far as I know she's still keeping the diet up. She can only eat 3oz of protein per meal, maybe 4 if she pushes it. She lost about 90+ pounds. From what she told me, there were lots of problems with the band, slipping, blockages and a good number of people have had them redone or switched to VSG. I all I can do is wish you luck with your surgery.

What kind of fluid do the inject?
Oh thank you, I read that post too fast. My husband has a specialist he is very happy with, he does not believe in surgery. My daughter goes to a special childrens hospital. We love her Dr. I will keep that in mind if something ( God forbid) changes |

Have had this surgery and a couple of follow-ups due to the weight loss. It's not easy but it is worth it. I look and feel better and have no major health issues (unlike before- blood pressure, glucose, etc.) Your life will be difficult afterward. Learning what you can and can't eat, fatigue, and other issues will always be there but I still wouldn't change a thing. Consult a nutritionist or a dietician and be sure you cover all the bases with your doctors- both your surgeon and your regular family doctor. Help them work together to get you a pleasant recovery.

Thank you fund :)
I was just wondering since my family has crohns and colitis issues . Seeing what different foods do to intestines, having special diets here, it just made me wonder what would happen without a stomach to help break everything down prior to going into the small intestine. Wow talk about a run on sentence! |

Hard rock , Can you have the band removed if you lose the weight you want, keep it off for a few years, then decide you no longer need the band? Is this a temporary procedure or permanent like a bypass?
