Congratulations an your anniversary! I, too, had mine 13 years ago. I'm sorry to hear about all of your complications, but I hope that things are smoother now!
This is the guy in your area for the work you want done. He has a ton of experience working with WLS patients and does beautiful work.
If you want facial work, there is someone who is better, IMO. He does body work, too, but I can't vouch for it. However, given what I know about him and his value for aesthetic, I would absolutely consider him. I would use no one else for facial work than Dr. Eberlin. His attention to detail and facial structure is unparalleled. I would bet he is the same when it comes to body work.
Hi, I am considering plastic surgery, can anyone recommend a plastic surgeon in concord or Walnut Creek (California)?
If you are going days without food or water because you cannot hold anything down, and they cannot find a cause, then you may need to be on a feeding tube and get IV hydration. This could be done with home nursing assistance.

Hi - Those are revision surgeries to a Gastric Sleeve or in conjunction to the Sleeve surgery. I have been doing so much research on which would be better (SADI-S or DS (Duodenal Switch), I was looking for some guidance on the pros and cons. I think I have all the information I need but my final talk will be with my surgeon the day before/day of surgery to decide which would be best for me.
Wish me luck...

Good Morning!
I made this video for those of you that are looking into Weight Loss Surgery, and want to know which ones to avoid.

I hope you are feeling better and best of luck with your revision. I am not sure what SAD1-S or Ds means though.... I may have to look into a revision of some sort also if I cannot get this weight off. Prayers all goes well.
