Anyone Had Gastric Bypass Then A Redo?



Recommended Posts

hi im interested in hearing from anyone who has had gastric bypass surgery and had to go in for a redo ..

i had gastric bypass in 2004 and my starting weight was 493lb and got down to 260lb and i kept it off for 6 years.

but due to a disc prolapse and upcomming knee surgery and heart issues ive put on almost 60lb again .

i saw my surgeon last week and he has put me back on the waiting list for a gastric bypass redo

or for the gastric sleve (whichever he decides to do).

im told i will only be waiting about 12 weeks for this surgery and i am very scared as i have heard it is high risk surgery..

.so id like to hear from anyone who has had the redo and if they had any problems with it...

i had no problems with the first gastric bypass other than needing to be on Iron and B12 injections...

thanx from debz

I had the sleeve done in 2010. I had a couple of surgeries soon after the sleeve that slowed down my wt. loss only got down about 70 lbs. I'm going to have the bypass done on 9/17/12. I'm very nervous but at the same time excited. I will try my best to keep u updated to my progress.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
