Having a revision on Jan. 21

I had my original RNY in July, 2004.  I lost lots of weight but in the past couple of years and especially in the past six months, I have found I can eat anything and everything.  Long story short, it looks like the stoma into the intestine has closed up and a there is now a fistula into the old stomach. I've gained about 70 lbs. in the last year or so.   So, I got insurance approval to get the revision.

Of course I'm anxious about it - the first time around I had quite a few complications; ulcer and a stricture, but I think it will be better this time as it will be a laprascopic procedure instead of open.

Anyway, looking forward to getting back on the losing side, and wishing all the other January 'babies' good luck!

Good luck to you!
