3 days until revision!

Banded 2010, revision to bypass on Thursday 2/3/15.. (Depending on scar tissue) Doctor has me on complete liquid diet for the next 2 days. I'm getting a little nervous. I know I've already had WLS once, but it seems strangely different this time. I can't explain it. Has anyone else experienced mixed emotions?

I'm scheduled for sleeve to bypass revision on July 29. Tonight I am terrified. I hope I'm doing the right thing. Since my sleeve in 2013 I have been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation sleep apnea and High cholesterol. My lowest weight was 212 pounds but I am back up to 250 pounds. I know healthwise I am making the right decision but I'm just so scared. Being a nurse I think of all the complications that could occur although unlikely. I have great faith in my surgeon but I'm still having second thoughts. Is this normal?

I am also in the same boat as you....but my surgery is the end of September. Had band in2007 did great. Went in September for a simple 'port repair" doctor removed my band. I literally gained 50 lbs from sept to jan 9th when this doctor didactic partial sleeve Gastrectomy...what is s that????anyway, have only lost 15-18 lbs. I went back to my original doctor who did the band and wished I had stayed with him. They were treating me like I was at fault. I know it falls on me but I never had any, zero restriction. After going through all the tests, again, I do have a larger stomach and that contributes to it. Doctor is doing the bypass and I'm a little freaked out. I trust him completely but the re routing stuff is what scares me. I'll keep y fingers. Please keep me posted on your journey! I'm praying for a smooth recovery and success for you
