Curiosity got the best of me. That really rubbed me the wrong way. Such negativity.

I was kinda torn about coming over here because I don't want to be accused of stirring things up for no good reason. But I think that there IS a good reason this time, because the misinformation is really atrocious (about both of our surgery types).
Just hate to see stuff like that go uncontested, and I don't know a lot of the specifics of the DS so didn't want to speak for you guys.=)

i think we are all passionate about the surgery we have picked, or why would we pick it? i see people on all boards talk bad about different surgeries, having part information etc, to me this is nothing new, band bashing, rny bashing, sleeve bashing, ds bashing. for me ds was the best i am sure other would think i was crazy, how can she do that to her body, etc. but so be it. we are all not the same, nor have the same body etc. you can say that you would never do this or that, but if you lose your tool, no matter which one it is, the thought process may be different on what and when to revise to. revision surgery insurance coverage is getting tougher all the time, not sure if being ****y about having anything done revision will be an option for the future of many, especially since i have seen many insurance co go to 1x bariatric procedure.....
