**Repost** RNY to DS revision surgeons
I think the best 2 pieces of advice that I have been given over the years are #1....... RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. and #2........... Go to a surgeon who does ALL 4 WLS!!!!!! That way you get accurate information, and the surgeon will not try and sway you into an ERNY.
