Guest guest Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Hi Yes, the procedure is reversible. They say it's riskier than the bypass procedure. You can try going here (http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/Revision/) for information. It may prove to be a great resource to not only connect with other dieticians but also people who've gone through the GBR. The posts are interesting to read. Hope it helps.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 We reversed one patient per her request. It took over 5 hours in surgery. She is doing well still and had not regained her weight loss back as she continues to follow the good habits she was used to doing after ther gastric bypass. We continue to check her labs and so far she is fine.
