Revision Surgery

[suestapley]

I had a bypass in Nov 2010 and this Thursday 30th July I am having revision surgery, I am having the bypass redone with a Fobi Ring, was just wondering if anyone else out there has had this done and what the results were for weight loss. Thank you for reading.

Didn't want to read and run, so want to wish you goodluck with your operation. I have read some things about the fobi, mostly positive. Good luck and you'll be back on the loser's bench in no time at all xx

Hello
All the best for your up coming surgery

Hi there

Try a search of the forum for FOBI. There are bound to be some posts about it, though I know it is not a common procedure. I think only one or two surgeons do this in the UK.

Good luck.

Thank you everyone, feeling more nervous this time round than last.

The very best of luck to you with the surgery and thereafter.
I'm wondering whether to contact Mr Van den Bossche as I am looking to have revision surgery to my gastric band, done in 2011 as I've regained 60 per cent of my weight loss. The options are very confusing and information on which surgeons perform fobi ring procedures is hard to come by.
Good luck with phase 2.

Already had it done meecestopieces, weight loss in 4 weeks it 1 stone 11lb, so pleased with results, very happy bunny thanks to Mr Van den Bossche. The Spire Southampton

Excellent! Congratulations. Sounds like you feel you've made the right decision. It's a trek to Southampton from Blackpool but it may well be worth the 2 or 3 trips to gat the best results. Shame no other UK surgeons that I know of perform the fobi procedure.
Brave girl, best of luck to you. Please keep us posted
