Revision
When I went to orientation, someone asked and they said it's not covered and it's not reversible. When I read online, people say it' reversible, however, there isn't a lot of research on it. Therefore, most doctors won' do it because they don't know if it' full proof. For instance, say they reversed it and things didn't work as normal like before, you can have bigger problems than you do right now. Hope you are good otherwise. Have you tried to see someone to ask, even a private practice.

If you're feeling like your pouch has stretched it probable is not the cause of regain. I have freinds who went back to surgeon for revision. After scope nope pouch is still good. Take a look at what you are eating. Have bad habits returned? That is often the cause of regain. Yes revisions are covered

Dr. Reed in Guelph has done take-downs of RNY and Dr. Hong in Hamilton has done them. It is only done for serious cases, and OHIP would cover it for that. May I ask what kind of a revision you are looking for. I know someone who went from RNY to VSG, but it did not work well.

Revisions are done yes but it is a process like anything else.
They will want you first use your tool they want you to work on your diet first. They might even have you do the OPTi fast program for weight management. If they decide to go on further for reVision you are going to go to the same process.
They won't just hand you over a chance to do a revision. It's a long process and they will want to make sure that you're ready for it.
