Has anyone had revision surgery due to strictures?

I am new to this forum, and I have had an ongoing problem with a stricture.  I have had 4 endoscopy with stretchings.  My GI doc said he only wants to do a couple of more and then he will refer me back to my bariatric surgeon.  However, my bariatric surgeon said there is nothing he can do till I have been stretched at least 10-15 times. 

this is frustrating to say the least.  I really don't want surgery, but just in case that is the end result, I was wondering if anyone here has had similar problems.  I am 8 mos post RNY and have never been able to eat solid food
