Hello everyone, I am 12.5 years post-op from a RNY. I do not know if it was distal or proximal. I am just starting the process of researching options for a potential revision. I have regained 120 of the 170 lbs I lost post surgery. I kept the weight off for ~8 years and then had 2 children and my weight spiraled back out of control.
Could someone point me to a link or information on what options there are for RNY revision outside of DS? I am quite concerned about the potential for complication from the DS. Could a balloon insertion or something along those lines help or is that not viewed favorably?
I can afford to self-pay if necessary (it would kill my husband but I could do it).
