I was still losing from the sleeve because i was only 5.5 months out. My doctor said it could be 80-100 pounds more from that point. -

Just had my revision from sleeve to bypass done on Tuesday. It would be a lot better if I wasn't allergic to narcotic pain medicine! -

Pipergurl replied to StartingOverAfterCancer2's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I am only 5 months out from gastric sleeve. I go on Tuesday for revision to gastric bypass. I'm very nervous. I had surgery in the summer so I didn't have to miss work (I'm a teacher). Unfortunately, with an hourglass stricture and a pouch above it holding my food, I am throwing up undigested food. I'm freaking out about the recovery. I only plan to take a week off of work because I'm still a newer teacher without a lot of leave. The note my doctor gave me to bring in states 2-6 weeks. Ugh! I had no pain after sleeve. They said it should be a similar recovery. It wasn't for you guys? We need our own forum for sleeve to bypass!!! -

Stricture Mid-Stomach
Pipergurl replied to Pipergurl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am scheduled for a conversion to bypass on December 16. There is no other option at this time. I will be having the surgery done by a different surgeon as I did not feel comfortable going back to the other one. -
Stricture Mid-Stomach
Pipergurl replied to Pipergurl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My doctor gave me a lot of options but only 2 are practical. To be honest though, I'm really feeling overwhelmed. A part of me says just convert it to be bypass but the other part says, I didn't want that which is why o didn't get it. I need to do some research. Thanks for the information!

Stricture Mid-Stomach
Pipergurl replied to Pipergurl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@Pipergurl no problems here, but wanted to respond sorry you have the stricture you called doc a few times about prob he didn't do anything - thought you would be alright?? they are thinking of another surgery? would they change to gastric bypass 2nd surgery would be covered due to your excessive problems?? hope things move a long in the right direction DOS sooner than later when were you sleeved? good luck kathy I'm not quite 4 months out. The doctor has been telling me since I was one month out that it was all in my head. Talk about screwing up on his part. I want to get a second opinion but no one wants to operate except the one who did the surgery. Sent from my XT1254 using the BariatricPal App -

They found a stricture in the middle of my stomach this weekend. Because it had been there awhile (despite the fact that I kept having problems and contacting the surgeon), I developed a pouch above it from it stretching to hold the food. Now they're considering more surgery. Anyone out there have anything similar happen? This isn't your normal stricture because it didn't occur where the esophagus joins the stomach. Thanks!!!
