Revision bypass surgery post gastroplasty

[Candynorvell 0]

Can I please talk to anyone out there who has had the revision done from gastroplasty to bypass that has been left with a marble sized stomach? I don't need to hear from anyone that has had the sleeve or anything other than an actual revision that best case scenario leave me a marble sized stomach. How are you eating, what are you eating, how much, how often etc...My Doctor gives this to me as best case scenario and I am shocked as I don't know how life can be sustained with that size of stomach, thanks

You might try the revision forum here on BP or on other bariatric sites, as they may reach a more relevant audience.

A couple of resources that I found useful when facing a similar prospect are:
