I'm looking for anyone who has had a revision or someone who has had a sleeve and lives in Lancaster pa. My surgery will be on March 28th,2016. I'm excited and the good thing is that I know what to expect after wards because I had the gastric bypass in2003. I'm scared because there are serious complications that could arise BUT I believe that everything happens for a reason and somehow I'm going to help others who have give through a gastric bypass reversal and creation of a gastric sleeve. I would love to hear some support.

Blessings

I'm in similar place as you trying to figure out what to do. You actually had RYGB revised to sleeve? I wasn't sure that it even was possible there's so much conflicting information online. How are you feeling now just about a year later? My health is declining rapidly due to malabsorption turning into malnutrition creating so many health issues and hitting scary lifetime low weight 103lbs having trouble even maintaining that weight. My overall appearance is of someone slowly starving to death. Pancreas issues, hair falling out, teeth decaying, slow healing from even minor scratch, poor skin condition/quality, abdominal pain, no appetite, fatigue. I just feel/look so unhealthy. I want to speak with new bariatric surgeon, my original surgeon who I loved and trusted left to start a new center in another state, about having a revision to gastric sleeve hoping it will help with absorption problem and that will in turn help resolve other related health problems. Right now I don't feel strong enough to survive any surgery though. Has it helped/worked for you so far? Any complications? Any issues with insurance?
