Topic: RE: Overstitch Revision?

Have you been able to find one? I can't think of an option besides calling around. I would think NY would have something being more urban but you might need to travel if you want this. I have read varying things about the over stitch procedure. I wish you the best

Topic: RE: Revision what is new?

What are you dealing with? There are so many options like pouch reduction where they go in and create a smaller pouch or they bypass more intestine. It really depends on what you are dealing with I think.

Topic: RE: Removing the band- but which is better, Sleeve or Bypass?

Oh I am sorry to hear about your GI results. But its hard to know what to do when it comes to this stuff and it comes down to we live and learn. We tried something and now we know. I am grateful for this site and all of everyone's feedback.

I can totally relate to what you said about your friends. I look at their before and after and was like why isnt that me. I could totally be there right now. I am horrible with the acronyms so I will have to look the one you mentioned . I get so confused with all the different things out there. :)

Thanks again !!!

Oh and also, I am seeing my surgeon next week to discuss the results of my upper GI, which show severe GERD and a Haitial hernia. I just may have that bypass in my future, it's just too bad I didn't push for what I wanted 5 years ago.

I had the band and wanted to convert to the bypass after seeing my friends success with bypass. My surgeon suggested the sleeve, which I did. I now suffer severe GERD and wish I would have gone through with the bypass. However if GERD is not a problem, consider the DS. It has beat the long term results.
