Can I get a revision and how much it would cost me?

M and M
I had bypass surgery 5 years ago they did it by lap. Unfortunately they did not make the sac small enough and I did not lose the weight I wanted. I am now gaining weight back and getting more and more depressed. I don't go any place, I refused to go out to eat, I don't do anything cause I am so embarrassed. I would like to know if I can get a revision and how much it would cost me.
