I too am a band to rny revision. I don't have a surgery date yet but hopefully soon! I think I'll take my pillow, cell and charger, kindle (just incase) Chapstick seems to be something I see ppl on here say to take all the time, socks with grippers or slide on house shoes for walking in hospital, possibly a pedometer just to track my movements for myself and, for me, pictures of my baby girl and husband. Ill send some prayers out for you! Looking forward to hearing about ur surgery, recovery and seeing u on the losers bench! Peace.

Drink lots of Water and pick up stool softeners. One of the hardest things to do after was "use it". Lol. Best wishes!

I just had my revision on 5/2/2013! So far so good. I was in the hospital from 5/2-5/5. I slept thru most of my stay because of the pain meds! Definitely take some chap stick, deodorant, powder if you use it. WARM SOCKS! Pack lightly you won't need much! Be prepared to walk the first night of surgery. Good Luck

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
