Hi Everyone, has anyone here had a revision from LB to DS? I am looking into it and wondering what Doctors you went to and what type of health insurance you have?
If anyone can help me out that would be great!
Thanks

As far as I know, DS is not done in MA. You might want to try posting this question to the DS or Revision Boards. You might find someone there who could help you better.

Good Luck!

I had a conversion (as they call it ) from a lap band to a RNY last July.

I am down 50 pounds from the conversion. It is much easier to eat healtier with the RNY.

Also...check to see if your doc will do the procedure in one or two steps. My doc ( Dr.Lautz) does it in one surgery.

good luck.
