I don't know if the band could be done after rny. The rny can be done after the lapband however. I don't think the band would have anywhere to put it on.

I have the lapband. I did not have the RNY previously, however there are 3 girls here in my KC area support group that I know that did have the RNY and convert to a band several years later due to regaining their weight after their stomach streched back out.

There's not much they can do after an RNY. If the person took their health seriously and didn't think of this as a quick fix, and tried and got over the plateau's. I think it would have worked. You have to be careful and not let it stretch out again. There are so many people out there that have to go back for a revision. Maybe they should be thinking about a revision.
