The only time I've heard of a 2nd surgery is if you had a non bypass surgery before. Examples; sleeve, stapling or lap band. I do not believe that a bypass can be redone.I had a gastric bypass 13 years ago, I am looking to see if anyone was able to get a second surgery years out. I want another surgery to help me lose weight. thank you
I heard a few people on here have had revisions to there bypass or something like that done....I had a gastric bypass 13 years ago, I am looking to see if anyone was able to get a second surgery years out. I want another surgery to help me lose weight. thank you
I recant my earlier post. Upon doing some research I did find out that there is a surgery that can be done to decrease the size of your stomach. I don't know that every surgeon does it, but it is being done.I had a gastric bypass 13 years ago, I am looking to see if anyone was able to get a second surgery years out.

I've been thinking of your response to Kiki, Theresa. Your attitude was very upsetting. Have you heard the saying, "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all?" How do you know that she gained most of her weight back? Her post merely said she wanted to lose weight. Let's see you down the road and see if you've kept all of your weight off. Until you are in someone else's shoes, you can't assume anything that has happened. As to your God bless ALL. A true Christian would not treat someone the way you did. I see you are a new member. Maybe you didn't realize that we are here to support each other, not tear each other apart.I think if you've had a bypass done in the past, the only thing they may be able to do is just remove the 80% of the stomach that was left in the first time and do the duodenal bypass, just a guess, but seriously, If you had the bypass the first time and followed the diet they tell you to follow the rest of your life, and kept eating the smaller portions, you would not need a second surgery, sorry if this sounds harsh, but you must have gone back to your old habits and gained most of it back. Well good luck, God bless ALL.

I have no idea, as I am still only 2 yrs out from 1st surgery. However, I think a visit to a bariatric center could answer many of your ???sI'm wanting to find out more about the gastric bypass revision? I had the bypass done 14 years ago. After a bad divorce and becoming an alcoholic I have gained almost all my weight back. I just want to know if I had the surgery, should I expect the same results in weight as I did when I first had the bypass?
