Has anyone had a bypass revision after sleeve?

Lots of people have had the revision. There is a revision board here http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/revision/

From what I have gathered most are due to acid reflux issues. There are a few threads about VSG to RNY though.

Use search and/or check the revision forum for information. Many people have had one or the other done.

Instead of bypass, have a look at the duodenal switch. It's what the sleeve was designed to revise to from the beginning. It keeps the stomach working as it is and adds the intestinal change that alters your metabolism.

She's revising because of GERD. DS will not address her GERD. The only solution is to revise to RNY
