  1. I did a revision from VSG to RNY two years ago. I NEVER had GERD before.. but I have it now!!!! My throat feels swollen all the time. I have appt to get upper GI imaging, but I'm kind of freaking out in the meantime. I'm on pepcid and omeprazole and it's BARELY allowing me to eat/function normally.
  2. I never had GERD with the sleeve.. but I did have a revision from sleeve to RNY... and now I'm experiencing awful GERD. Glad to hear it's getting better for you!
  3. Did you ever get your GERD resolved?
  4. I can’t stop trying to find answers. I have experienced migraines for years, but approximately two years after my sleeve surgery I began experiencing intractable migraines and headaches. I have been seeking treatment for years, am in numerous meds, and get botox therapy... and it’s still a struggle. I recently had revision to RNY... but honestly these migraines started initially two years post op my sleeve. Has anyone else had this? They’ve greatly impacted my quality of life.
  5. My surgeon told me Vyvanse was fine to take. Check with your doc, but my psychiatrist told me Vyvanse (versus other stimulants) absorbs differently and can be opened.

  24. Yeah pushing send doesn’t reply to someone’s message. I think it’s iPhone issue
  25. I’m trying to rally round some more specific support for people that are Sleeve to RNY (either pre or post op RNY). Not sure the best way to do this. I did create a group.... anyone interested? It’s called “Revision Journey.” Anyone interested?
