    Better late than never is the way I have to look at it! I’m just so glad I’m not vomiting bile anymore!!

    So the scar tissue gave you a bowel obstruction? That’s painful to deal with for sure!! I sure hope they’ve got you on the right road now!!

    Yes, the scar tissue was the culprit. I am much better now.

    Ok, I know this post is from 2018. But I am currently in this situation. I fear I will need a revision to my sleeve to correct my gerd and I am terrified. I don't want it at ALL! I have done so well with my sleeve (6 years post op) that I hate the idea I have to have another surgery. I have maintained my 150lbs weight loss and had my hiatal hernia corrected last month. But I still have some gerd symptoms. How have things gone for you after your complication? Was it an emergency situation? Are you happy you had the revision? Have you experienced any other side effects or complications from the revision?
