I had VSG in feb 2016 lost weight rapidly in the first 12 months my starting weight was 134kg (295lbs) and my lowest was 71kg (156lbs). By December 2016 i started getting excruciating pain in my upper abdomen and ended up having an emergency gall bladder removal. Up until December 2018 I continued to experience these gall attacks and would end up in the ER in agony almost once a month and managed the smaller attacks weekly and sometimes daily. I ended up having an ERCP procedure for sphincter of Oddi and since then have gained weight like crazy due to being able to eat without fear of an attack. My current weight is 92kg (202lbs) and I am now considering a revision to RNY

I am seeing so many mixed stories of weight loss after revision even some who went on to gain weight. Has anyone had revision for weightloss successfully? Would love to hear your story.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
