Ok. So as some of you may know I have been working to get insurance coverage to get a revision from the RnY to the DS. Well... I have my insurance handled I think and have my consult with Dr K later this month but I am getting nervous. I am researching like crazy and have been fighting for this. I know I have the right Doc but am still nervous r and still feeling doubt.
I am 11 years post RnY - I am considered a "successful " RNYer because I have maintained 50% of excess weight losses but technically still overweight and borderline obese. I am 195ish at 5'7". My primary reason for revision is severe dumping , hypoglycemic episodes and seeing some rise again in my blood pressure. However some times I wonder if I should just deal with it as I have been ( however after an episode of dumping, I feel like this is the right choice) but as I think and research I know how big of a surgery this is... Any advice or pep talks?
