Terrible Side Effects of "Weight Loss" Drugs

we need China's diabetes cure.
Over 20 years ago my mother got weight loss surgery, the doctor that did it was an absolute hack and has since vanished into the sunset after making a shitload of money from people. My mother has things she just can't eat anymore because they'll sit too hard on what's left of her stomach. A few years ago she had an issue where she was throwing up everything she ate and I dragged her to the hospital, they found that the coconut shreds she had been snacking on had formed a bolus that wasn't moving and that her stomach was basically the size of a blister. Thanks to this issue we were able to catch and address some of the issues. She also cannot absorb iron orally so she needs infusions every few months. Can't help but think about the years lost and the upcoming nutritional struggles as she gets older. She hit that "rare but terrible side effect" mark. I feel bad for the people just trying to improve their life and getting fucked in the process by people that really just don't care, the company could add the warning of gastroparesis to their packaging easily.
