Revision question

 Has anyone here had a revision due to problems with a stricture? When I try to research revisions online for RNY, it seems it's mostly for people who have regained weight. That is not the issue for me. I have had a dozen procedures for strictures. I'm just wondering if a revision is the answer.

 There are different revisions.  Lapband to sleeve, lapband to RNY, RNY to DS.  Yours sounds like the doctor is wanting to perform a revision so that you will not longer have weight loss surgery.  If you do that, you will almost certainly gain back all of your lost weight.  Try to get more than one opinion.  Reversing your surgery for a stricture seems unusual, but your symptoms also seem very unusual.
