Hi Tammy, I've not had a revision, but I did have the fobi done in May. My stomach is transected, the pouch is completely cut from the stomach and then a band is placed around my pouch to prevent stretching and to keep food in the pouch longer. This is supposed to have greater long term results. I also have 18" of bowel bypassed. Now, I have alot of trouble with food. My doc is saying I have a stricture. He is just going by my symptoms. I have heard from a few other people with a fobi pouch with the same issues so I am not sure what is up. I cannot eat any meat, no pasta, I survive on string cheese. My pouch will only tolerate about 1 1/2 oz of food at once. Now weight loss-wise I'm doing terrific, I've lost 116 pounds in 7 months. But I feel tired all the time and look kinda sickly (I think) I'm trying to find out if this is a fobi issue or just my issue ya know? Email if I can give you any other info. I hope This gave you a little info. I wish you all the best. And congratulations on the babies!! Barb

David is WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDERFUL! He is such a sweetheart and made me feel comfortable, cared for, and smoothed the way for my insurance. This was awesome because on my initial consult he told me they might say no, but they didn't!! Yay you! I will keep my fingers crossed for you that you get your surgery. You want to have surgery around the time that I can eat *real* food again! I had my surgery on 12/13. Good luck. Angela
