I am having a revision and I would like to know about Dr. Pompa. I went in weighing 195 during initial surgery. I lost down to 147 but my stomach has stetched according to the swallow test I had done I am back at 190. I would like to know about some experiences others have had with Dr. Pompa for either initial or revision surgery.

 

Thank You,

I read several things several years ago about her making hourglass sleeves. Ppl

were having her sleeves reversed to appropriate shape but haven't heard anything recently.

Why are you seeking revision?  Is your sleeve malfunctioning?  Do you no longer have restriction when you eat dense protein like chicken breast?

What is the revision?  Sleeve to sleeve or sleeve to DS or something else?  If it's a DS, I'd definitely ask DS patients for input/what surgeons to look for.

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

Well my sleeve has stretched but its strange because it is the upper part that is stretched. I think depending on how sleeve looks when she gets there then it could advance to mini bypass.

Yes it is not giving me restriction even when i eat dense protein. My appetite is not as large as before but it is still more then it should be according to others who had the sleeve around the same time. They still have good restriction .

I am just about to have a meeting with her. Did you have your surgery with her?

I too need a revision. I lost 100 lbs, but gained back 50lbs from my 1st surgery. I am still 120lbs to my ideal weight
