Does Gastric bypass Srgy Help relieve pressure from Borne Cancer?

I have a sis inlaw who claims she has Bone Cancer and said the doctor told her to have GBS to relieve the pressure from her bones. She tends to lie A LOT!!! Does anyone know if thats true or is this another one of her stories!!!

I believe your sister in law is well full of horse s*it! There isn't a doctor in the world who will do gastric bypass surgery on a patient who has cancer it's just freaking stupid!! Maybe after she is in remission, but not to "relieve the pressure from her bones". Even with gastric bypass surgery the weight just doesn't melt off, you still have to exercise, eat properly and make LIFE changes both mentally and physically.

I have had gastric bypass surgery with great success. I'm more than happy with my results and changes it's made in my life. My surgeon told me when I first met him "weightloss surgery isn't magic it is ONLY a tool. If you don't make the changes mentally you will gain the weight back, you are the one in control."

GBS does not get any result for bone cancer, this is another one of her stories.
