Had my 3rd visit (insurance requirement) with the doctor yesterday. We have decided to go with the DS. At this point waiting on the doctor to submit his report to the insurance company. I'm so nervous, doctor stated BCBS views revisions as patient failure rather than surgery fail. There is a 50/50 chance. Sick to my stomach as I wait on the decision.

Please state when they give a answer. My dr wants to do the revision but Medicare guidelines is giving me the problem.

Hi,

I revised from RNY to DS Dec. 2012. I have lost 110% of my excess weight. I have bounced back from 118 to 125. It was a pretty rough begining but I am now happy and healthy. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Good luck

Whitney

Hi Whit,

Im a little over a month out from the DS. Im wondering if you experienced any bad flatulence and frequent bowel movements. If so, were/are you able to control them?

I didn't have DS... but try and check what you are eating before it happens... and consider adding a probiotic if you aren't taking one.

Hi, I did not have flatulence until I started eating increased quantities of carbs. I usually only have one BM a day, in the morning. Occasionally a second in the afternoon. 

Best,
