Please can someone answer my question?
Hi all,
I recently had a revision from a RNY to a BPD with out a switch because of complications so the switch part was not possible for me. My problem is my stoma is so streached out i litterely cant get full. The food emptys so fast every 15 minutes I am eating. I had the stomaphxy before my BPD to see if that would help, it didnt at all ,I waisted $8,000 on that procedure. My question is , Is their a experienced Doctor who has done revisions on the stoma ONLY to make it tighter so food stays in longer so I can go a few hours without eating like normal people? I am again so depressed because of this . Please can someone give me any help maybe a name of a doctor who has done this Thank you for any replys!

Sounds like you just need to start calling and asking that question when they answer the phone at the dr office. I have heard of limited success with the Sclerotherapy ?? my spelling might be off on that.
My revision was a mal absorbtive - they moved my connection down further. My Stoma is still open - But because of a shorter intestine I absorb less nutrients and I am able to loose weight again.
Good Luck - I'll be watching to see what kind of reply's you receive
