FEMALE VOICE: I fell down a fly of stairs and every doctor ever wanted to do is inject me with shots and give me pills and nothing went away. And I gained weight tremendously and it was making me miserable and I would—it had gotten to the point where my legs and my back was just numb some mornings and I could not go to work. And I went to my doctor and I told her that I had went to this seminar and I was really impressed with what he has done and his profile and she said, “well, you have two choice. You can have a back surgery or you can have the gastro-bypass to lose the weight and she if it’ll take the pressure off your spine.” So I choose the gastro-bypass because I didn’t have anybody to take care of me with back surgery. And, uhm—ever since I’ve had the gastro-bypass, I’ve never felt so much—I felt good about myself, I do things that I could not do. I—I still have a little back pain but it’s nothing compared to what I use to have.
