Hi everyone,

I am new to the site. Had RNY in 95, kept weight off till last
year. Very discouraged. Has anyone had a revision? 
Any info would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks,   Pam

I would go to the Revision board and the DS Board they will be better suited to help you there!

Thank you. Good idea. Was just hoping for someone in Arkansas,
that had a doctor that was close, so I wouldn't have to travel
so far.

You know Dr. Roller might be someone to talk to in Springdale but I believe most people are going to Arizona to Dr. Schesinger.  The Revision board will tell you all about him, I am telling you he is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have friends in Arizona. Maybe a plan?!
My top weight was 311 before RNY, in
6 months I have gained 101#, kept #'s
off for almost 13 years, then kaboom!

Have you looked into some of the other procedures that they do nowadays for RNY patients who have regained.  I don't relly know what they all are, I think stomachx (or something like that) is one of them, and I have heard of some having lapbands put over their pouches when they don't have much to lose.  I would definitely look into those.  You may want to post on the obesityhelp main board and ask what different procedures there are.
