Gastric Sleeve to gastric bypass

[dturner153 15]

I'm on solids now and I feel like I haven't had anything done..I have had no dumping and did have a few peanut m&m's to see how my body reacted to chocolate..nothing .. to be honest I would have preferred to dump..not that I'm planning to eat chocolate on a regular basis..I have also had lightly fried food with no ramifications..on the whole my food choices are healthy but I'm wondering why the things I thought I would have issues with have been fine.

Let us know if you find out anything....

I had "Stomach Stapling" over thirty years ago so my RNY was classed as revisionist surgery. My surgeon checked absolutely everything before my surgery. I had H. pylori bacteria and had that fixed. Gastroscopy and colonoscopy with tests to make sure there was no lactose intolerance or any other food allergies. I saw a cardiologist Dietitian and psychologist. He left nothing to chance but when he got in I had so many adhesions my liver and spleen were fused together and both fused to my stomach. He spent two and a half hours just separating organs! When he got through he found I had a hiatus hernia and repaired that and removed all the damaged part of the actual stomach as well as the bypass. 6.5 hours of surgery. I had this on Aug 10th so I am still having sort of mashed food. So far I have had no problems with any of the food, no reflux, very little pain and as yet no dumping! Other than some Constipation which is very new for me there have been no issues and I have lost 33kg since the pre-op diet so about 6 weeks.
