I had a sleeve revision to bypass for GERD. also had an esphogeal hernia and dysphasia. They were able to fix the hernia but not the dysphasia

May I ask why you had the feeding tube?

About to revise to RNY on the 19th for this myself. More people than you might imagine have issues. Sadly, it's random somewhat, and inclined to happen if the sleeve is smaller.

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!
