I had the RNY in 2004 and lost 157 pounds. After a baby and ten years I had gained back 80 pounds. Thus past year I have been in and out of the hospital with internal bleeding and serious intestinal and stomach issues. Ulcers up and down and peptic disease that was not going away with medicine. A new surgeon (not my original) decided I needed emergency surgery after I collapsed in February from internal bleeding once again. He took out a foot and a half of my small intestines and 80% of my stomach. Unlike my original RNY he completely removed the infected intestine and stomach from my body. While I didn't have the surgery to loose weight again obviously it is to be expected and a bonus I've lost 26 pounds since my surgery on February 23rd. The last three weeks I've lost nothing!!
