Well actually the RESTORe procedure is a clinical trial, but it is no longer enrolling.  I think they are waiting for clearance of a new tool before starting up enrollment again.  I was already accepted into the study before they stopped enrollment, so unless something changes, I will be getting the procedure next week.  There is, however, another similar clinical trial called the ROSE procedure.  Rather than me trying to paraphrase what it is, take a look at the link: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT00411489?term=nct00411489+AND+TP0165+AND+Endoscopic+Stomach+and+Pouch+Reduction+in+Patients+With+Weight+Regain+Following+Roux-En-Y+Bypass+Surgery&rank=1 It looks like there are only 3 locations, but if you call or email Mary Lou Mooney (listed as the contact person on the site), she will give you the closest location to you.  Betsy
