Great Post Gary!

I would like to know that who decides what Op you have?
Would the Surgeon -assuming it is the Surgeon- ask me what i'd prefer? or would he say you're having this and that's that?

I guess it would go on my BMI as to what's suitable perhaps?

Any advice would be great

Cheers

Andy

( Ps...I'll probably bombard you with a lot more silly questions in the near future! )

It is totally your choice, however they will tell you what's best for you, and as far as I can see, the preference here is a bypass.

Ah now here's the fun. On your first appointment you have to fill in a questionnaire, which has a bout 100 questions, now when you know these are loaded questions, and depending on how you answer them, depends on how the phyc will talk to you. but basically they asked you about your childhood, any food related issues etc etc.
