I have post-cholectomy syndrome, bile salt malabsorption. Would gastric sleeve or RNY potentially help?

Asked By:gcgirl83 in Memphis, Tennessee

I cant absorb fat because of these issues, I've gained weight and unless I eat about 800-1000 cals a day, It's hard to lose weight and it's so hard to stick to that low of cals. I was wondering if weight loss surgery would help with weight loss or would it make my current issues worse.
