lap band revision to rny EDK pre op

I am having a revision from a lap band to RNY and the surgeon wants an endosccopy (EDK) done as pre-op.  Can the little camera get thru the band to travel where it needs to view and then back out again ? My band is full. 

Depends on how much restriction you have.  If you are pretty tight they may have to do an unfill.

They used a pediatric endoscope on me with an unfilled band and had no problem.

I had one done before my revision from lapband to RNY.  It was no problem at all.  Good luck!

Are you happy with the RNY?

I love my RNY!

I am very, very happy with my revision to the RNY.  I can eat like a normal person...lol.  I ate at Bugaboo Creek last week and ordered the ribeye dinner.  I enjoyed the small amount I was able to eat: small piece of bread, half the salad, couple bites of mashed potatoes, and 4 or 5 bites of the ribeye which tasted awesome.  Best steak I ever had in a restaurant.  I had so much food left, put it in a to go container, gave to my daughter as she paid for dinner as I wasn't sure how the steak would be leftover.

no worries here... I found out that the surgeon who does the endoscopy will remove the fluid in the band if need to before preocedure and put it back after.  Thanks All.
