Gastric Sleeve to Mini Bypass



Recommended Posts

Hello

I am not sure if the revision to a mini gastric bypass will work but I am 100% committed to making it work. I got cocky after slimming down and got off track. Regretful to say the least.

I found out that the procedure does not call for a reduction of the stomach because the sleeve already did that. Doing research now to look deeper into the physiological effects of the MGB and the difference between my GSS. If anyone can share their experience with the same surgery path I'd appreciate it.

Thank you

MJ

Hello..

Revision to mini gastric bypass will work when you are committed to not repeating what went wrong in the past. Everyone makes mistakes and that is what makes us human. Be smarter next time for not everyone gets a second chance at life.

Don't confuse yourself with data from the internet which is never specific to your body or case. The doctor would do a endoscopy or gastric swallow test to know the current position / status of your abdomen before deciding the revisional surgery method.

I went through the same set of surgeries and did not bother to read what was published on the internet and listened to only the doctor and went in to the whole experience blindly. Knowing too much can be intimidating at times and when in doubt, your surgeon or team of doctors are the best place to ask your doubts.

Cheers..

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
