Hey there! New to the forum, not new to the WLS world.

Having an EGD tomorrow to check the status of my anasthemosis and to see if a revision is in order. (Truth: I am HOPING for a revision.)

I am currently doing <1200 cals; +65 protein; <25 sugar; standard vitamins and calcium citrate.

Anyone have a RnY revision ? Any EGD advice? I had one previously but it was during another (bigger) procedure so I don't know what the after was like.

Thanks a million! Looking forward to getting to know you all.

I guess I should add I am almost exactly 10 years post-op. Lost a total of 120lbs. And yet... here we are.

Welcome to the forums.

I hope everything works out as you hope.

I had my EGD last Wednesday. It was the best sleep I've had in years!!!! I blinked twice after they gave me meds and then woke up in recovery. They did a biopsy of my lower stomach because I had some redness. My throat was a little scratchy up until the next morning and had some nausea. But nothing major at all. I went home and slept until 4 PM and then went back to sleep at 10!! No problems at all.

Thanks for this! I'm a teacher (high school) and am planning to return to school Thursday. I was worrying that talking thru my mask (which already isn't great on my throat) was going to be a disaster.

I work with the school district as well. I had no problems returning the next day. I had so much anxiety about it. And everyone kept telling me it was nothing to it. They were right.

Hope all works out! I had two EGD-a month apart . Biggest side effect was I slept so good after getting home. Was happy the next day was Saturday. Sore throat was worse on the second one. I am a revision patient. Sleeve to DS

I had rny gastric bypass and am wondering if I can have a revision surgery done.
