I had my whipples in jan 2016 and now I need to loose weight for some surgery on my very large apron. I have been told I need to loose 14kg before they can do the procedure, is there any weight loss jabs or pills I can take to help. I understand MJ etc.. can NOT be prescribed due to pancreatic reactions.
Many thanks Anita

I wish I could provide an answer, but this is a question more appropriate for a bariatric physician or a plastic surgeon.
