I was sleeved in 2014 and now I’m looking into getting a revision due to GERD and a Hiatal Hernia. Has anyone had Medicaid approve revision surgery??
-
So I had my sleeve done in 2014. Day of surgery I was 210 pounds. Lowest I dropped to was 174. I maintained my weight between 180-190 for a couple of years. With in the past year gained back all the weight I lost and then some. I’m currently at 212 pounds. I think I have some sort of hernia, and HELLA MEGA BAD reflux. I take Zantac everyday, like even cereal with milk gives me bad heartburn. So now here I am, thinking I should get some revision surgery. I already made an appt for a consult. But I’d also like y’alls opinions or suggestions. -What’s better post sleeve, Roux en Y or bypass? Also, what are some things y’all wish you would have known with revision???
