A member asked:
I had gasric in 2007. what are the qualifications for a revision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If the revision is for problems with the original surgery or limited success while following the diet and nutritional rules for gastric bypass, then speaking with your surgeon is the best way to see if revision would be beneficial. If you have not followed the diet and nutritional restrictions, i recommend you re-evaluate your desire for a revision.
