Revision from sleeve to bypass



Recommended Posts

I had the sleeve in 2010 lost about 3 stone put some back on and had the bypassAugust 2031 I'd lost 45 lbs from Aug to Nov not sure what I've lost yet until I go back in March to see the Dietician but feeling good this time , the surgeon told me I'd only lose 3 stone but lost more than that I had to stay in hospital for 4 days because my sats kept dropping and I did three up blood the morning after but once that was up I was fine no regrets , good luck to you all ,

Nothing crazy but very different. Eating is a challenge, getting enough fluids is a challenge taking supplements is a challenge. I'm struggling. I've been severely dehydrated about a month ago. I should have gone to the ER but they're full of Covid and the wait is HOURS literally. I drank Pedialyte unflavored, added grape juice, chicken broth and milk. It too four day to get through the vomiting and severe headache, but I still haven't fully recovered. I need to get a handle on this. I'm so glad to be through with reflux and the non-cardiac chest pains from the hernia, but dang, I want to get past all this other business!

Just reading up and I’m pending revision surgery for GERD and hiatal hernia. How are you doing now. Praying things have improved for you.

Hi all. Just looking for some input from anyone who has had a revision from sleeve to bypass and if their tolerances have changed/unchanged.

I’m on this site now because I have surgery coming in June. Sleeve to RNY

also repair for esophageal hiatal hernia.

I could also use to lose a few regain pounds.

I was sleeved September 2012, went from 225 to 147 now at 176.

Thank you for responding to my post.
did you have more nerves for your revision surgery? For some reason I have more anxiety for this one as opposed to my sleeve.

No not really but I think the pain was a bit worse but was out of bed a couple of hours out of my OP but did regret it the day after thinking what have I done but would do it all again now xx

Thank you, I’m getting a bit more relaxed. I don’t want to blow the chance of making solid changes that I will commit to now.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
