Thanks! I hope you had a great one as well. I must say I wanted corned beef and cabbage but I chose to stay away from the "very" gassy foods.  :)

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

You are right..the insurance company may not necessarily require it but the state of Maryland does.

 The nutritionist, Mandy, was really awesome though! I decided against going w/ Dr. Greene too because of the insurance issue.

Topic: RE: Considering a Revision Consult....
Thanks Brandi!  I didn't realize he was your surgeon.  I knew Candi had him for the band but couldn't remember who else on the boards at the time had him! 

So far I had a good experience.   My gut tells me go with RNY  (since the long term data isnt there for VSG)  but  I am concerned about the long term re-gain with RNY and possibly the major vitamin regimen (not sure what the extent of this is yet or for how long...I have to do more research on vitamin supplement after RNY).

My other research has been on DS (which I dont think he does and I am not sure which surgeon in the area does) .   And then my next question was well if you have  VSG will people revise from a VSG to a DS since half the procedure is already done?

If I am able to have this revision I just need to make sure I am making the right choice this time around.... I do not want to make another mistake in the choosing the wrong surgery.
