Is it possible to have RNY after gastroplasty 21 years ago that was reversed?

In 1981 I had stomach staples placed. This was revised in 1982. Due to severe acid reflux (there were no meds then like Prilosec, Prevacid, etc.) they removed the staples and told me I would gain my weight back. Since being on meds for acid reflux, I have had no more problems with reflux. However, I am now back up to 310 pounds, have diabetes, severe sleep apnea, joint pain, fatigue, shortness of breath on exertion. I am not living, just existing. I want the surgery and my life back. I have 3 wonderful grandchildren that I would like to enjoy! I am only 56.
