I had my bypass March last year, and have lost weight yes, but I have since been diagnosed with type II diabeties,  And my other co morbities are not improving. I also have reactive hypoglycemia, with which I have frequent episodes of passing out and falling, and have injured myself several times.
I am limited with my internet access so if anyone could or would, please send me a text at 870-316-8459. Thanks ahead yall...

Have you checked into the vetted surgeons on http://www.dsfacts.com/?  That is an AWSOME, AWSOME website!!!!!  Their information is accurate.  One of the OH people here (Bev) stated the website.

All I can say is RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you decide on a revision to the DS, here is a list of surgeons who do the RNY to DS revision, because it is SOOO complicted, it is a short list.
Also, here is a good link to a GREAT research paper:  A must read!!!
