My reversal was purely emergency (I was going septic) and not my choice.  If you are unhappy with your WLS, I'd contact your bariatric surgeon and ask tell them you would like a reversal done.  For me, I want a revision, meaning I want to have another RNY or possibly the Lap-Band.  My body is not responding well to having my old stomach back - GERD back with a vengeance, able to eat a lot, no satiety (hence a HUGE problem with the increased eating capacity).  I suppose I just want to be normal again, and for me, that means another WLS.

I'm sorry I haven't been a big help.

I also wanted to comment on the post prior to shellbell1126.  I whole-heartedly agree that ER staff needs to listen and I feel they should receive more training on the special needs of bariatric patients.  We're not your typical patient and apparently, as I found out, certain things may happen that are unique to our cir****tances.
