Helo everyone,

Has anyone had any expeience with revision surgery after your TG. My fiance had TG (Bilroth2 Braun procedure) and because a severe case of acid/bile reflux, we have been advised to perform a second (revision) surgery to Roux en Y.

Thank You.

    I've looked into a little but it seems like you have to find the right specialist that is willing to give your case a try. I struggle daily to get in more than 1000 calories because of how little i can eat. I've been in contact recently to see if having my roux en-y surgery redone since it was done in 2017 and surgery is better.
