Hi everyone.  

Im 13 years post op after having vbg gastric bypass, and gained 60 lbs back, but having a major hard time due to knee and lymphedema problems.  

Does anyone know of revisions available?  My surgeon doesn't practice anymore ad I had seen another 7 years ago about Rose procedure but at the time the new dr said they couldn't fit the tool past the band.

im in the NY metro area.

Appreciate any input!  

Thanks!

I know a lady who has a VBG back when. When she went for her revision, they were unable to do ANYTHING to her stomach, but did the intestinal portion of the Duodenal Switch. She reached goal in a few months and seems to have no trouble staying there. If you'll PM me I'll see if I can't put you in touch with her.
