Default Who has the Duodenal Switch

Hi all I am new here........


I am just looking into the Duodenal Switch and think it may be for me. I am interested in hearing any good or bad experiences with it.

Also what doctors are performing this surgery in Indiana?

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Welcome to the board, thank you for joining us.
Good luck with your process.
((((((HUGS))))) May your journey go well.

Unfortunately, we don't have many DSers here--I think there are a couple, but they rarely post...

I wanted a DS but my surgeon said no, as I didn't have enough weight to lose to qualify. (!)

Try the obesityhelp.org forum for other DS'ers. Then come here to lick your wounds. lol (OH can be a little rough sometimes)
