I have a question. I need to lose at least 100 pounds and even when trying hard to do so, I never lose any weight and continue to gain. I take a lot of insulin and have been told that adds weight plus I have been retaining fluid even on high doses of Lasix and spironolactone. If you have cirrhosis of the liver, how safe is bariatric surgery?

I had endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty in October of 2017. I have since lost 78 pounds. It was the best decision I ever made. No longer have high cholesterol or high blood pressure. Not as many aches and pains as before. The program was amazing and the support I received before and after the procedure added to my success.
