Okay I am a second timer. I had gastric sleeve 3/9/21 and I gained it back. I am considering the SADI and I am looking for information about it. I have posted on the revision forums and the duodenal switch forum without response. Is this just a really rare procedure or am I posting in the wrong place? I worry that even if this is the right surgery for me I may regret it if I can’t find the support along the way because it is less common.

Hello. I had SADI/SIPS on 8/16/23. I wish I would have had the surgery years ago. Im happy to answer any questions you might have. I think they consider it a “newer” surgery and there is not a ton of data on the long term success. I was 53, type 2 diabetic, high BP. After 3 weeks post op I was taken off all medication. My A1C was 9 and it’s been 5 for 8 months. I’m a year post op down 103 lbs

Wow. I am so thrilled for you to hear or your weight loss but more importantly the resolution of your comorbidities. That’s awesome. You should update your weight in your profile. You earned it!! Are you still losing or are you in maintenance at this point?

Just had the SADI 1 week ago today and I could not be happier with my choice!
