Cindy;

Did your weight loss improve a great deal after the proximal?

My pouch is " slightly stretched " and the stoma stretched as well. Had a

revision last year from a proximal to a distal RNY. While they were not able

to rebuild my pouch (horizontal pouch) they were able to place a silastic

band around my stoma to correct the size. What a different having a smaller

stoma made. Don't know how many surgeons are using silastic bands but it

worked for me. CindyW

_______

Original RNY 09/2000; Revision 06/2002
