I'm going threw the same process but Dr isn't sure if I'll have a Omega loop bypass or a gastric bypass, he has said it will take some time for the OP since I have to have the Nissen fundoplication undone and then the bypass, he also mentioned that I may need open surgery but he won't no till he gets in there and looks.

I am asking this for a friend. She is overweight (only 35 BMI) but she is having no luck with losing weight. She keeps yo-yo dieting and gaining back more than she lost. She is up to 219 pounds and has fatty liver cells in her blood. I'm worried about her.

She had the Fundoplication surgery about 3 or more years ago and is wondering if there is any kind of WLS that is technically safe to have. I know it's been done before, but I'm wondering if anyone here has, or knows someone who has had Fundoplication BEFORE their WLS.

Thank you. [emoji4]

Hi I've had a nissen fundoplication many years ago for sever GERD and now I've decided to have WLS and have been told a gastric sleeve is not an option, so I can either have a gastric sleeve bypass or a gastric Omega loop bypass, my OP will require me to have a undo of the Nissen fundoplication and then the bypass done, all in one OP, will be keyhole but I may need open surgery, won't no till I'm on the table. The nissen fundoplication operation is where there pull the esophagus down and wrap the stomach around the too and stitch.

I'm very confident in my Surgeon and he has much expirence in doing the take down and sleeve as one procedure, so I'm not really wanting opinions on that. I'm just curious of the recovery and hospital stay of anyone that has had this combined surgery. Thank you [emoji6]

Hi I am having a nissen fundoplication undone and then Omega loop bypass, I was told having a sleeve will most likely return any reflux or GERD... Good luck
