  1. Anyone from Canada?

    Awesome3 replied to shanuska's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
    Before answering please read the entire thing.... I had GBS 15 years ago but I've gained everything back. Now I'm wondering if gastric sleeve is an option for me. I KNOW removal of skin is plastic surgery but why didn't my surgeon from 15 YEARS AGO continue with my treatment and refer me to get the skin removed? Don't answer if you don't know because it's wasting my time

  2. Anyone from Canada?

    Awesome3 replied to shanuska's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
    About 15 years ago I had gastric bypass surgery and what a nightmare! Now I'm back at 235 lbs and still gaining. I need to know if gastric sleeve surgery is a good option and do I have to go to Mexico to get it done? Does anyone know Dr Birch? My former doctor never did any follow up with me after GBS so I never got any of the excess skin removed. Will the new procedure qualify me to get the additional surgery to get the skin skirt removed? Please does someone have some answers?
