Revision from Sleeve to Bypass- anyone else?

[MAA1984]

Good Day All- I am having Sleeve to Bypass on June 11th, due to severe GERD. I had my VSG 6 years ago- I am extremely nervous and I know that this surgery is a lot more intense and life altering. Has anyone else gone through this? Any tips, tricks or encouragement please!

I'm right there with you! I had my Sleeve done 7 years ago and am now in the process of going from sleeve to bypass. Gerd and a large hiatal hernia are the reasons. It's looking like I'll have surgery in August. I'll be keeping an eye on this post too.

*update* recovery a little more difficult than sleeve. I am having a hard time getting in my fluids! So far my pouch will only tolerate pork for meat haha and make sure you measure out your 2 tbsp and eat SLOW. I have these little tiny catering spoons I use to help from eating too fast which was always my problem with my sleeve. I have already had an episode where I ate too much and my new stomach felt like it was gonna pop for hours, highly do not recommend. Good luck !!
