Hi the doctor will do both sclerotherapy and the Overstitch suturing. He said the Overstitch works better with the sclerotherapy done first. He will be resizing both pouch and stoma if they have stretched. If there are any ulcers, hernias etc that will be corrected at the same time. I agree that the introduction of food post procedure is super important to follow doctor instructions. I will be on clear liquid day 1-2. Days 3-14 will be full liquid. Puréed food for two weeks and then slowly introduce soft food after that for two weeks. So I will be 6 weeks before “regular” food start to be introduced. Maybe failures are because regular food came in too quickly. Did you have Overstitch?

Hi I’ve read your post and was glad to see you’re doing well. Seems you are one of the people who has success with the amount of restriction the endoscopic procedure offers. That’s great. My appointment is 3 weeks away. I’m nervous and excited at the same time.

Hi i am scheduled for a revision of my RNY done in 2002 using the Overstitch procedure. It’s concerning that many people seem to lose their feeling of restriction fairly quickly, but I am willing to try. I have seen a few people who are happy with it.

Hi i saw this post and wanted to see how you were doing one year out. My revision of my RNY (2002) is scheduled for 3/21/19. I hope you’re doing well. I’m nervous about this and am hoping to find someone who has had success. thanks!
