My g/f just had this done yesterday, after six weeks of hospital visits, three admissions, and at least 50 different imaging procedures. She's supposed to be coming home today - been in the hospital for four days this time around. Her experience has been pretty similar to the above. Our problem is with the way the consulting gastro has been treating us. He was dead set against doing the surgery unless she she consented to having another laproscopic stomach surgery to prevent acid reflux at the same time. After calling for a second opinion and getting her family doctor involved, he suddenly didn't want to do the surgery at all and we had to get a general surgeon to do it. Fine by us. Hopefully this resolves all the health problems that have been plauging her and our relationship for the past four months.
