VGS revision to SADI-S Advice

Hi - I am new here, but I am wondering if anyone can speak to their success having the SADI-S procedure after an unsuccessful VGS. I had a VGS done in 2015 and lost some weight but quickly gained it back after healing b/c I felt little to no restriction. My surgeon has suggested revising that to add the malabsorptive portion of the SADI-S. I am just curious if anyone here has had experience with this type of revision and what success you had following the DS portion. Thank you in advance!
