Wow, Airbender has ALWAYS been awesome and extremely helpful! WTH! I want her to stay here! Happy birthday to you and I wish you well in deciding you future. keep researching to get your answers, don't do anything out of haste, do the best for you, you will have to travel just accept that you are worth it, appeal your insurance if you have to if you are denied etc, don't settle, find a REAL DS surgeon who can advise you. I warn you to be very careful who you allow to perform surgery on you especially with your repeat surgical history. I would suggest seing one of 2 surgeon in the USA, Drs Keshishian and Rabkin, both located in CA, they have the most experience. with a ERNY you would have the worse of both worlds, you will have a crappy life and never be normal with it, DS you have the chance to be. DS is a difficult surgery, and ERNY is offered due to the surgeon preference not the patient's as I don't believe any well informed patient would choose that surgery. Oh my goodness you poor dear, band to RNY and you are contemplating ERNY? you are going from a bad surgery to the worse, stay far away from ERNY and your only decision at this point should be who can do my RNY to DS conversion. I'll definately ask him this question, but I get obsessive and cant wait that long. Im having an endoscopy and after the results from that I can give the Dr my answer. Should I research Distal RNY or DS? for diet planning purposes? Do distal RNY patients have the same bowel/fat/vitamin issues as DS'ers? I need to do my own research and go in prepared. I even said 'that looks like DS' and he said Yes.Īfter all that, my question, for my research purposes. The picture he drew for me (he drew an actual picture) was the RNY pouch with more intestines bypassed. Basically keeping my pouch and shortening the limb and moving it closer to the colon. He proposed a study he is currently working. I found that my original band surgeon's office (well, his new office) does the stomaphyx and I went to see him. I was researching stomaphyx and the sclerotherapy. Im now 270-276 and trying to stop this train. I have my back somewhat under control after nerve burn and with acupuncture. Severe back problems compiled with steroids over the past year and a half, I have gained 30-40 lbs. Was 5'9 180 in 6th grade and grew heavier from there) (More history- Ive been overweight since about 4 years old. that seems to be the low that my body is comfortable at. Lowest weight I got to was 225 (maybe lasted for a week). Height 5'9/ Starting weight 298- Recommended goal 165 (42 years old today)Ģ009: lap band. Hi everyone! Long time no see (if anyone remembers me Revision on 01/24/11 with Andrew Averbach Would this be considered Distal RNY or DS? Thanks everyone, I can't attach a link I am too new Someone please help this member, those that are on OH post there, ds vets help her, like me, she probably doesn't know any better, we only know what we know. Did I fall off the asshole truck or something? I don't have to put my hand in burning coals to know it will hurt like a MF!!! maybe that jackass chilipeper does. I mean I am new and naive but shit on a stick I know that Dr Roslin is picky about his rny to ds revisions and Dr Rabkin and Dr Keshishian would take those patients Dr Roslin said he would only do a rny to rny and not rny to ds. Of course I had to reply because one of the OH members that helped me was Airbender and she was attacked, because she gave what I thought was good information, but I can not give ds information. Can someone here help her, the poor thing has had a band, then revised to RNY now looking at revising again to distal RNY or DS and she is getting some bad information. Who the hell is that CS bat shit crazy idiot chilipeper who posted some ridiculous BS to this poster. title "would this be distal rny or ds" in the revision forum, who is trying to get information about distal RNY or DS. Since I had so much help on OH, I want to try to help her. I don't know this person, but I could be her, I feel bad for her. I come to request help from something I saw that is frightening. I am new here today and a sweet lady invited me over.
