I paid out of pocket for a tummy tuck and breast lift in 2017. I need my arms and legs done. Has anyone had Blue Cross pay?

Awesome. I wish I could say the same

My team doesn't tell me anything but other people on this site said they didn't lose but the studies say you will

I would like to lose 60 lbs. I have heard all different things regarding revision and weight loss.

My revision is a week from Monday. Do you expect to lose more weight

I am having surgery 6/10. Is there a suggested packing list for the hospital? I had the sleeve in 2015 but I forgot what I brought.

I had the same thing happen to me. I am hoping for my revision June 10. Severe reflux, a large pouch on the sleeve and a hernia. When I was complaining of the reflux my doctor said it was my fault because I gained weight. I have something sticking out of my stomach and he just said I don't know what it is. Thank God he did an upper GI and Endoscopy and found my problem.

I am getting the bypass, remove a hernia and shave the pouch.

He is converting it to a bypass, remove a hernia and shave the pouch.

Get the bypass. I am converting to the bypass because my reflux got worse after the sleeve.

Congratulations. Do you think the recovery was easier?

The doctor is converting my sleeve to the bypass and shave the pouch. Thank you for the support.

My doctor decided he is going to convert my sleeve to a bypass and shave the pouch. I am going on 5/6 to discuss the surgery.

I need to go back on the 6th to discuss the next step. I had the Endo today and the pouch is too big on one end. He was going to shave it and decided he should do the bypass.

I just came back from the doctor he is going to covert to the bypass and fix the sleeve pouch.

Good luck on your ultrasound. My friend just had Gallbladder surgery

How do they fix it? Is it another surgery?

Does anyone know how an incomplete staple line on a sleeve is fixed if it has created a pouch and acid reflux. Thanks

I read my report and it says incomplete staple line from the sleeve. It created a pouch. How will they fix it?

I read my report from my GI and it's an incomplete staple line that created a pouch. How will they fix it?

I will let you know when I know

I was ready to leave him. He was such a jerk at my last visit. If he can fix it I will be very grateful.

I have seen 3 doctors and none thought it was a hernia. The doctor that did the GI said he didn't see a hernia either. Something comes out and it causes a severe muscle cramp it is like a charlie horse in my stomach.

I had an Endoscopy prior. My surgeon thinks that the sleeve is larger on one end but he wants to get a better look. I have been dealing with another issue but I didn't think it was related. When I turn the wrong way something sticks out of my stomach. It is extremely painful and I have to push it back. I had the feeling everytime I threw up but now it is just when I move. We will see after the 30th

I am glad you don't have any Gerd. I am going for an Endo on the 30th to get a better look at it.
