  1. I’ve ALREADY had the D-Switch surgery(12/3/19). I was just posting to see if there were others that had experienced the same thing
  2. I had the RNY in 2005. And as expected the pouch does tend to stretch over time. At the time in 2013 I chose to do band over bypass because I had loss some restriction. The D-Switch was not being done then and was the band only revision option in my area. It wasn't until last year that I was made aware the D-switch could be done. So I decided to have the band removed and do the d-switch with the intention of not continuing to gain more weight. Since the D-Switch I’ve been pretty stable but I was hoping to see more of a progression. The reason I made the post was in hopes to find someone in a similar situation. I am re-learning my body again. I’m not looking to do another surgery
  3. No. I had the bypass first. Then the band over the bypass(pouch)
  4. Because 10 years after RNY I began regaining weight and with the band I wanted a more permanent option and remove the hardware.
  5. I haven’t talked to them since my 8 week follow up. I’ll have to make an appt. But from that visit he did say it would be real slow. So I just assumed it was normal
