  3. thank you all so much for the information!! You have no idea how much I appreciate the feed ab and information about your experiences. jaxmom and deb.13 did you have a tough time getting it approved through the insurance. Both of your stories are similar to mine. The thought of being able to eat without choking or throwing up sounds like a dream right now,
  4. Hello!! I am brand new to this forum. I was banded 5 and half years ago, lost over 100 pounds and then boom.....no longer tolerated band fills, severe gerd, vomiting. I have gained 71 pounds of the 100 I lost back. I have also developed a hernia I am so upset and defeated right now. Is it worth trying for the revision surgery? Are complications enough for them to pay? Any feedback or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
