As the title says really.
I had Gastric Bypass Surgery about 4 years ago.
Lost 11 stone (still wasn't at goal weight/healthy bmi) and have now gained 5 stone back.
Should I consider WLI?
Anyone been through similar?

I would if I were you. The injections are amazing. Do a bit of research first, though, as there are ways of avoiding side effects. There are tons of threads on here about it. Best of luck.

I would do some research first about the impact on those with bariatric surgery. Are you ble to speak with the surgical team who carried out your procedure? My concern would be related to having a smaller stomach and the way in which the meds slow transit of food down. You could experience strong side effects.

Do you know why you have regained the weight? If it is overeating, WLI will help with this, but you will still need to address the underlying causes. I don't want to be negative as they have been a lifesaver for me, but I would urge caution.
