Could a resleeve be the answer and jump start my weight loss again?

February 10, 2019
Asked By:toidboid in Kingwood, TX

Had VSG in 2013. Starting weight 215. Lowest 175. Currently. No reflux prior to surgery. I now have GERD, bile reflux, 3 cm hiatal hernia, gastritis, and esophagitis, retained fundus, and dilation of body and pouch. Since I had no reflux prior to VSG, and given that recent endoscopy revealed known causes of reflux -- retained fundus, dialated pouch, and hiatal hernia --could a resleeve be the answer and jump start my weight loss again? Would rather not go the RNY route. My reflux is controlled on PPI.
