 Thanks! I was just wondering if anyone else has had a revision and how it went. It reads to be the most risky of all the surgeries.

 It went GREAT!!!!!!! I had some spiking bp issues so I was in the hospital 2 days longer than expected. I live alone....was able to take care of myself when I got home..haven't had any problems at all!!!!!!!! I have lost 68 pounds since Sept.28. Haven't lost my hair.....I do take vitamins and biotin. Have had a couple of dumping episodes, but only one really bad one.

The band was so grown into the tissue that my dr actually used it to be part of the pouch.

Good luck with your surgery!!!!
