Thanks for this thread everyone! I am having revision surgery on 3/27, from sleeve to RNY, due to reflux and regaining all 60 lbs I lost with the sleeve 😭. Hoping to at least get rid of the reflux and losing the weight again would be a great bonus!

@HappyHikerGal How was your experience at Oasis of Hope? I’m scheduled for revision surgery with Dr. Gonzalez on 3/27 and just looking for feedback on the facility, staff and overall experience. Which procedure did you have done? Thanks!

@Confoozed84 Thank you! My surgery was rescheduled and is now 3/27. I’d love to know details about the hospital, doctor, staff, etc. Thank you!

This helps a lot. Thank you so much!

I’m right there with ya. I’m 3.5 years out from my sleeve and have my revision to RNY scheduled for 10/4, due to reflux and regain (HW 246, LW 186, CW 233). I’m nervous and excited too. Looking forward to seeing your progress!

Thanks so much for this feedback!

I’m scheduled for a sleeve to bypass revision on 10/4! Excited and nervous.

I definitely remember feeling that way after I got my gastric sleeve surgery. I was MAD that I couldn’t eat solid food and MAD that I’d done this to myself. It’s all part of the emotional reaction that’s to be expected after such a huge physical change. Give yourself time and it will get better!

I’m scheduled for a revision from VSG to RNY on 10/4 (VSG 2016, HW 246, LW 186, CW 233). Hoping to resolve my reflux and regain. I would love to hear some experiences from others who’ve done the same revision. I’m looking for all the good and bad info! I’d especially like to know: 1. Any side effects or complications? 2. How much weight did you lose and how long did it take? 3. If you had reflux or GERD, did the revision resolve it? 4. Any regrets with having the revision? Thank you!

I am scheduled for a revision from VSG to RNY with Dr. Francisco Gonzalez at Oasis of Hope hospital in Tijuana in October. I’d love some feedback and experiences with either the surgeon and/or hospital. Nervous but excited! Thank you!

Dr. A did my sleeve on 1/20/16 and the whole experience was amazing. Highly recommend!

I used Dr. Carlos Altamirano and would recommend him to anyone. My surgery was January 20th.

Yes sounds great! Post here and let me know how your surgery goes.

@@danilynne I'm very excited! Going over my pre-op stuff now. I'm only required to do the 3 day pre-op diet, so I'll start that next weekend. Good luck to you!
