Sept. 2020. After 2 Gastric Bypasses, one in 1987 and a revision RNY in 2004, I am once again looking at having laproscopic surgery to lose weight. My weight had ballooned up to 250 pounds and I am very upset about this additional weight. I heard of Dr. G. Steven Webb from a friend, he is at Memorial hospital in Jacksonville, FL. He is an experienced Bafritric doctor. I have had all the testing, upper & lower gastroscopy, barium swallow and barium enema. I have had 2 appts with Dr. Webb and he thinks he can help me with a Robotic Distalization, and a revision of pouch. Right now we are waiting on my insurance companies to approve the surgery, then a date can be set for the actual surgery. He recommended this procedure for my case and circumstances. He assured me the weight gain was not my fault but due to how my body is using food I have eaten. He is very helpful explaining things and very positive.
Oct 2020, I was all set to have my surgery, when Dr. Webb found that my heart was racing. He sent me to a Cardiologist to get clearance. Cardiologist is currently doing tests on my heart, so my surgery is on hold until Cardiologist can find what is causing my heart to race.
