Hi Pugsley
Welcome to the forum. I am in the same boat, interested in the wrap but can't find a lot of long term info.
 
Hi, I'm due a bypass but as far as I know there isn't alot io long term info as its quite a new procedure. There are a good few wrappers here so hopefully one of them can point you in the right direction. Good luck.

Hiya, welcome to the forum :) I had a sleeve on 24th May, if you have any questions give us a shout. There are a fair few people on here who've had the surgery you are researching - hopefully they'll pop up soon :) Good luck :)

Hi and welcome!
I'm afraid I can't help on the wrap front as I have a band but am revising to a sleeve in August and the surgeon doing that does quite a few wraps.

Wrap is considered an experimental procedure here in Italy too so we do not have long term data either.
I gather that real long term data are only available for bypass and diversions 'cause even sleeve is quite a new procedure (about 5 years old).
