You might want to look into a revision to a DS. http://obesityhelp.com/forums/DS/posts.html

Hi Karen, Have you had any testing done to see if your staple line is still in tact? I had a revision to RNY and have had GREAT success with it! The recovery was about three weeks for me. I would do it again if I ever had to but since they transected my stomach, I feel I am fixed for good!

Can you explain what the Dr. did to your pouch during your revision?
