If you were revised Band to RNY - did the surgeon remove the band and then do the RNY at the same time?

I would hate to be opened up twice!!

I had the lap band to gastric sleeve revision and yes they do it at the same time.  Now I will be going to gastric bypass.  Had success with sleeve only I have a lot of acid reflux and bypass is the only other option.
