12. There are other surgical alternatives
I had a Duodenal Switch w/Biliopancreatic Diversion this past November. I have lost 95 lbs. and feel fantastic. I haven't had one complication or problem and neither have most of the other DS'ers on the discussion board where we gather. I can eat more normally than an RNY patient and have no issues with input/output that RNYers can also have. I take an ADEK and Dry A & D every day and my labs are fine.

It was the best thing I could have done for myself!!
