Comment on WLS Bypass Increases Risk for Kidney Stones by Roxeanne

This is exactly why I have opted to have the Gastric Sleeve not the RNY. I have Chronic Renal Failure and the higher risk of kidney stones could mean the life or death of my kidneys. With the Gastric Sleeve there is not the increased risk of this because there is no malabsorption.

Even after having surgery I found this informative and interesting to learn about other surgeries as well.

I understand your train of thought…I guess i am just a dinasaur…but I am finding this web site is getting too busy and we are not communicating our issues emotionally or about us physically as pre and post ops as we had in the past. I feel this board was created for Bariatric support ONLY….and opening it up to the general mass is not serving the needs of our specific interest group! There are ALL kinds of websites on how to lose weight and alot of info on the webs…..I feel this site should have remained exclusive as it was in the beginning. I know my needs of why i chose bariatric surgery and my journey….would not have interested me several years ago..UNTIL i realized for myself I needed surgery…..just my opinion…I would NEVER have gone to a surgical site to get basic info on how to cut back on carbs and fat/sugar…..
