Has anyone had this particular type of revision done? If so, were you happy with it?

I am not sure, I received a letter from the hospital that was inviting me to participate in their study of RNY pts. that have either never lost all their wt or have been regaining. It is where they go in Endoscopically and suture the pouch and stoma if it is too large.

I would go just to check it out it can't hurt. In the mean time research all you can about the  Stomaphy X procedure.  Keep us posted and GOOD LUCK,  Robin

I heard somewhere in Mass. they were doing that. If you didn't lose all your weight yet it might be something to check out.  If the risks are low and it's free, it's something to think about. good luck. Koukla

I know Dr. Oh here in WA does them. If you want to speak to ppl who had them done, I'd recommend the yahoo grads.

P.S.  My year + long absence has NOTHING to do with my WLS, or my type of WLS. See my profile.
