Hi Wittle,

this is the wrong forum for the DS, this is for the BPD which is a different surgery from the DS.

here is a link to the DS forum:

try reposting this over there and you will get better responses.

 daughter   just underwent a BPD reversal due to malabsorbtion issues for now going on 2 yrs.  She originally had the RNY precedure but regained alot of her weight.   The doctor did this precedure and it did shed her unwanted regained pounds, but she became so sick and protein levels dropped like crazy.   She began to swell from ademia as well.   The reversal was done and the common channel put back in place to where she will now absorb again.   The scary part is now that she has become so used to basically eating like a horse all day, she will now have to go back and eat sensibly with only protein and very little carbs and fat.    She does have a lapband also intact in "case" she should really begin to creep back up the scales at this point.    She will be taking in 100 gms of protein a day then dropping that to 60-80 eventually.    I pray that this precedure now that has been reversed will allow her to absorb again.    Did not do the DS with the precedure........I hope that this will bring about alot of feedback as we don't know of anyone else out there that has been through this precedure........most others have had the BPD/DS...........major difference........thanks for letting me post on here.
