Your suggestions re: JIB revision .. Please
Aqua posted a topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Dear Dr. Jossart, I was wondering if you would be kind enough to give me some general info re: a JIB revision in to a sleeve gastrectomy in one procedure. If it is possible & advisable? I had a JIB done 30 years ago here in Canada & had lost a significant amount of weight, which I was able to keep off until a few years ago when I became very ill from the blind loop syndrome. Unfortunately this illness controls & impacts my life gravely I need to have a revision but do not know of a Surgeon who specializes in this kind of revision. I understand the surgical implications & limitations due to the previous WLS and I am not sure which procedure would be the best for me to replace the JIB.I am hoping to be able to have a replacement that has long term weight loss with the least amount of long term complications. Any suggestions or names of Surgeons that would be able to help me would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Aqua -
Hi Everybody,
Am new on here. I am hoping to find out how folks are doing post surgery.I need to have a revision of an old WLS called the JIB, which was done 30 years ago and am not sure which procedure or surgeon would be best for me. Is there anyone out there that had the same surgery as I & if they have had a revision?
I was also wondering if there is anyone that had the sleeve done more then 3 years ago & how they are doing... Thanks
