I have looked and can't find credible-looking/complete answers to the following questions. Hoping you guys might know some of this stuff:
1. Anybody tried weight lifting after DS? Have you been able to rebuild muscle, or does the protein malabsorption hinder that?
2. Anybody have trouble with absorption of your regular meds? If so, how big of a problem has that been?
3. To those who went from a VSG to a DS: Did they revise your sleeve, too? If so, why? Is that fairly common? Does it increase the risks? How has your weight loss been compared to virgin DSers?
4. Do lightweights have the same percentage EWL as heavyweights?
5. Do you know how many DSs are performed a year and what is that in relation to total percentage of WLSs? Are DS performed increasing or decreasing?
Please forgive me if the answers were right under my nose. My head is spinning from all the research and my IQ has gone into remission.
Thanks, MM
