My name is Jeannine and I had the MGB in 2002.

Hi --

My name is Jeannine and I had the MGB in 2002.

I had a previous bowel surgery and had many adhesions.

I did have a problem because of that. During the surgery, my spleen got knicked and a hematoma (blood clot) formed around the spleen which had to be evacuated. So, I had to go back into surgery after 2 days.

It was scary but they were able to do the second surgery laparoscopically too which was a relief. So, there are always possibilities of problems in any occasion,

but the end result was still worth it.

From 295 to 160!!

Take Care --

Jeannine
