Hi, I'm so sorry to hear that you had complications. I had my wls 12/6/02 without any complications. but I do agree with you. It should be researched fully, many people do not realize the seriously dangerous part about a operation, and all eyes are blind to what or might can happen. I'm a member of obesityhelp.com I find great support there. I hope you are doing better and recovering from your wls. It does have it's issues, take care
