Hey guys, I am thinking about having an endoscopic gastric bypass revision. Has anyone completed this? Wondering about weight loss and if there was any complications? Would you recommend for others? I want a revision but the down time for surgical is tricky, so hoping this could be a good options.

Hey, I’ve never heard of this? Is this just going from a bypass to sleeve? Or?

I too have been researching this. True You weight loss out of NC. So far I am not impressed. They seem to be all about the money.

I am scheduled for this on March 23. I am concerned too as this is more about alleviating symptoms of GERD and not weight loss. I have kept most of my weight off for the past 11 years but have been struggling with major GERD symptoms. They said my pouch as double in size along with a hiatal hernia. The revision of the pouch through endoscopy is said to make it better. I am very hopeful.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
