Gastric Sleeve Reverse or Revision?

I had Gastric sleeve for about 5 years. I was wondering if the pouch can be fixed to the point that it can go back to its original stomach size (as in being reversed) or being revised to a different procedure? Like Gastric Bypass, Mini Gastric Bypass, etc.

Anyone know this info?

    not sure about making it smaller. As far as revision to bypass, yes - several people have had that done.

    Your sleeve can't be reversed, the excess portion of your stomach was removed and discarded after your sleeve surgery, but there are other revision surgeries that can work with the stomach that remains. RNY, Mini-Bypass, and DS or SIPS are all possible with a sleeved stomach. Look in the Revision forum for people's stories.
