I had a fistula and a revision surgery last September.  What type of revision surgery are you having done?

Good luck on your revision surgery. I wish you much success. I go in for revision on September the 4th and cannot wait. I am converting from sleeve to the RNY.

I hope you have a speedy recovery. If you don't mind me asking, what were your requirements with your insurance?
