HELLO EVERYONE, I AM 10 YEARS POST RNY SURGERY AND I AM LOOKING TO HAVE A REVISION TO HELP ME LOSE MORE WEIGHT. I INITIALLY LOST 154 POUNDS BUT OVER THE TEN YEARS POST SURGERY I GAINED 40 BACK. I NEVER HAD LOST ALL THE WEIGHT I WANTED TO LOSE BECAUSE I STARTED OUT AT 340 POUNDS AT 5'1". THE EXTRA WEIGHT IS MAKING MY OSTEOARTHRITUS A MISERY. I ORIGINALLY HAD MY SURGERY WITH DR ROBERT ARMOUR FORSE OF BOSTON. UINFORTUNATELY, HE HAS OR IS MOVING TO NEBRASKA AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO MY REVISION. ADD TO THAT I AM LIVING IN PHOENIX, AZ NOW. HAS ANYONE HAD A REVISION? IF SO PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHO DID IT AND HOW IT WENT FOR YOU. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANYONE'S HELP. THANK YOU!

I just had WLS surgery 08-19-03 so I have never had a revision and I hope to never need one. However Dr. Zahn out of phoenix (St. Lukes)who did my surgery does revisions. You can reach his office at 602-716-9200. Personally he is the best doctor I have ever seen. He takes the time to answer all your questions and explains things in a way you can understand. Good Luck, Tina
