Open Procedures

I apologize, this was suppose to be included in my last post. A few more questions.

I realize there is RNY revision to include the lapband and second RNY to a revised RNY.

Have you had either of these procedures?

If yes, what would you say the pros and con's of that specific type of revision surgery were?

Did you reach your weight loss goal?

If given the chance, would you do it again (revision)?

Typically revision surgery is performed in what anatomical state? Open or closed abdominal surgery?

If your first RNY was open does that mean a revisional RNY also has to be done open? Are all revisions done open?
