 I had Gastric Bypass in Aug, 2009.  What are the reasons people have revisions and would it be possible form me to have one a well.  I have a 4oz pouch and was suppose to be 2oz, I'm having alot of acid reflex ( haven't had any caffine since June of 2009 or spicy foods which I never liked anyway.  I only drink water, crystal light, milk and protein shakes.  

Any suggestions,
Thanks,

Teresa  I now have a new & healthy life!

You could revise to the duodenal switch.  A lot of people have... unfortunately.  Wish I had known about the DS first and then I wouldn't have needed the revision.
 Come to the Dark Side!!!                     
Band to DS revision 11/09/09.
