Mx is my last resort. But my sis in law has gotten her exclusion overturned! However, she is a first timer, not a revision. So I will at least try. And if not, it will be Mx in a year.
Trial you best to appeal it. But most likely it will not be approved. But ... You'll never know unless you try.

Hello,
a member many moons ago.. original open Rny 2002
with a weight loss off a 115 lbs. Then 2 children, a bad knee with surgery poor eating habits. Weight gain 50 lbs.
i can not shake it off.. I have failed! I have malabsorption issues with iron, and B-12 so I am infused once to twice yearly.
i am looking for options.. not critics.. I am hard enough on myself.. on suggestions of options..
i have BCBS of Michigan
No. I definitely don't WANT surgery. But I will go through with it if it will help my severe digestive disorders. It has nothing to do with weight regain, which is why I am asking about the amount of weight that is lost because I don't want to become too thin.

VSG 2013, RNY conversion 2019 due to GERD. Trendweight here!
I would contact Michelle from Vitalady. She had ERNY and described it as combining the worst of all weight loss surgeries.

I would like to hear your opinion on this. I have spoken with you in the past and you are very knowledgeable. Please tell me why you think ERNY can make it worse. Thank you.

Thankfully no GERD. Thoughts?
My feeling is that I have one more shot at this and really want to make it work.
Thank you.
vsg is a restriction only procedure, like the band. Rny is restriction plus malabsorption.
Were you successful with your band in losing and keeping it off?
if not you might need the rny.
I personally think that revising to ERNY can make your SIBO worse, not better.
