Pam, you might want to post your question in a new thread so more people will see it. There are a quite a few people around here who have had a band and had it revised to a bypass, or who are waiting to get revised to a bypass, I think. It seems to be kind of common.
You mention that you were told that you would not be able to eat sweets after your bypass. Some people are not able to tolerate sugar after a gastric bypass. It can cause something called dumping syndrome, which makes you nauseous among other things. But not everyone dumps, so you might still be ble to tolerate sweets. I'm one who dumps, and I'm actually glad of it because if I could eat sweets, I probably would eat too many.
