Michelle, I do not know where to start after reading your past history. My 62 year old daughter has had three specialists indicate they "think" she has vagus nerve syndrome. She also had gastric bypass surgery and the surgeon wanted to do "exploratory " surgery but her roommate told her that her friend had died during exploratory surgery. It is good that you have family support. After all the unbelievable interventions you have been through I so wish there is something I can offer. Her surgeon thinks there is a possibility that the vagus nerve was damaged during the bypass surgery. I understand though that years ago cutting the vagus nerve was considered proper during bypass. You have been through so much. At this point we are waiting for a referral to a neurologist at Stanford Medical Center. Apparently there are sixty neurologists connected to Stanford. Forgive me for not being able to offer more other than my sincere empathy for all that you have been through.

Cutting the vagus nerve would be malpractice!! At anytime-it would paralyze muscles that let you talk swallow breath/ move you food through digestive track/ controls body temperature/it runs the length of 3/4 of your body/ you need to study the cranial nerves and compare her problems to what nerves were possibly affected during surgery/ help the doctor figure out what happened- it’s her body- she knows more than any one what’s affected/ you’ve got to take intimate some things on your on
