Lap after gastroplasty

HI all- In my wasted youth, 20+ years ago, I got a (futile) stomach stapling procedure. My hubby and I have decided to go for a lap-band procedure. Anyone have any info on this having been done before?

Mary Ch.

    Mary (anyone actually - this is a general question),

    IF you had WLS by having your stomach stapled so many years ago, why cant you go back in for a revision and have it restapled?

    *My MIL had this sugery 20 years ago - lost a ton of weight. Gained some of it back, then became bulemic to 'keep it off'. Ive always wondered why she didnt just go back and have her tummy restapled.*
