I have my next appointment with my surgeon on May 31st. I'm going to ask about revision to a bypass. Acid reflux is seemingly becoming more of a problem, which after carousing around the forums I discovered it's not uncommon for GERD symptoms to be kept at bay for awhile only to hit heavy after a year or two. My weight loss was ok at first going down about 70 lbs, but then I gained roughly 25 lbs back and I've been steady at that weight for...gosh...a year? And yet I'm still a 39 BMI so I refuse to believe that's where my body "wants to be." My portion sizes are also nowhere near what I'd expect if the forums are anything to ride home about. I can eat and am hungry for essentially normal, full meals...certainly no "I only eat 1 cup of food at 5 years out" kind of diet.
Just worried that it'd end up being an open procedure because I have a lot of scar tissue from previous urological surgeries.
