I'm in the same situation as you are. I'm having a revision February 11th.

How are you doing with your by pass? Do you like it ?

I've been doing well with the bypass. Do I like it? Yeah, I guess. It's has totally cured my GERD!

Has it been an easier recovery the 2nd time around? Are you trying to keep yourself from losing the weight this time around ? It appears I am going to have to do the revision and I don't want to do it because of GERD . I had EGD done yesterday and I have esophageal erosion that is progressing rather quickly.

The recovery must MUCH easier this time. I've lost 12 pounds in the first month and am doing everything I can to stop further loss. My esophagus was in terrible shape too. I was once step away from being pre-cancerous.

I was a grade C but yesterday it was a D !! They are calling me to schedule the revision tomorrow. Glad that you are doing well. Have you had an EGD done since revision to know if it is helping your esophagus. Do you still have reflux?

My reflux is gone! I was taken off protonix yesterday one month post-op. I haven't had an EGD done yet but will soon.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
