Question:
can a person have another RNY (revision) without a medical reason?

RNY's can be revised proximal to distal (more bypassed) however, if no medical reason, insurance would not pay for and you would have to self-pay. I don't advise this as distals have more malabsorption issues and must pay closer attention to their supplementing.
