seasidegirl got a reaction from FDclerical in Just got revision from sleeve to bypass!
Hi. I actually had a revision from Gastric Plication (2014) to RNY on Nov 28. I'm five days out. The plication had caused a lot of problems. It went horribly wrong. Caused a bulging and a blockage. A lot of tissue died. I also had severe reflux that caused erosions, ulcers and increased my risk for esophageal cancer. There was also a hernia. I'm so glad I had this revision and I regret being foolish enough to have had the plication. The pain from the RNY is not as bad and the nausea is WAY better than the first surgery. As far as weight, all I know at this poinis that I lost 4.4 lbs from after RNY day of surgery to next day. I'm still on Clear liquids, but added Protein drinks today. I'm sure I've lost more weight, but not going to check until post-op class on Tuesday. Have had diarrhea since yesterday and took an Imodium a while ago which doesn't seem to have helped yet! It's hard figuring out how much I can drink and how long I have to wait in-between. Just trying to sip every few minutes now.
