Me again... forgot to add I have Gerd and have nausea single everyday and vomitting about 4 times a week. Have been on prilosec and various other antacids since 2012.
It has been so long in 2005 I had RNY at 5'2 255
214 at surgery. Surgery went great had it done at Stanford Medical Center with Dr. Morton.
I lost a total of around 70 pounds. I occasionally had dumping syndrom. In 2009 was when l stopped losing I slowly started gaining. In 2011 had my son now 6yrs I had to be on a course of progesterone to prevent miscarriage was at 205 I developed gestational diabetes and at delivery I was 215.
In 2012 got pregnant with my 3rd and last child I developed hyperemesis and gestational diabetes on insulin 4 times a day and also a course of progesterone and anemia had venofer while pregnant and at delivery was 229.
After I had my now 5yr old son I began to struggle with sever nausea and vomitting and have been on antacid since then. I am now 245 at 5'2 I am pre-diabetic and developed patella femoral syndrom with joint pain. I recently asked my doctor for referal to Bariatrics for possible revision got a phone apptð??' with a doctor in the bariatric department and ahe basically said RNY is the last procedure they only revise from Lap-Band to VSG or RNY and if someone had VSG can only convert to RNY. I asked is this right? I mean in heart I knew she was not being honest maybr just for Kaise but I have read RNY can be converted. I decided to switch back to Anthem Blue Cross HMO the same coverage I had in 2005.
I found a doctor Benjamin Shadle for Sutter Medical Center Roseville. After watching his videos and reading tons of reviews I have hope.
I am nervous can anyone please share your revision story with me if you've had RNY. How long did the process take and if it has worked I have reading about duodenal Switch.
I appreciate any helpð?'
Thanksð?'?

I already got the approval
for band removal , they denied the rny because I didn't complete the 6 month diet. So now everything's ago , I wanted it all done at once , I didn't want the removal and then to wait for the rny .
For me as well , biggest mistake ever ! I think the maker should refund all the money people spent to get them and pay for their therapy too , for the longest I believed I was doing something wrong , really it was my so called "tool"
Congratulations, I am so happy for you!!
