  1. Hi All, First time posting but long time lurker:) I had my sleeve done 4 years ago. In the last year or so I have been ticking upwards in my weight but the reflux is terrible. My surgeon did not screen me for a hiatal hernia before my surgery and did a repair during my VSG. The hernia has increased in size when I had an endoscopy done last year but my insurance at the time wouldn’t cover a revision. Now I have insurance that will cover revision. I had a virtual consult with my original surgeon and he has reservations about doing a revision because of my low BMI and maybe just a repair. WHAT?! I have had a repair. He wants to do another endoscopy but him saying this is confusing to me. Has anyone had their surgeon suggest such a thing? I don’t want to continue to gain weight but I really do not want to continue to live with GERD. I’ve not been successful in managing the GERD or stopping the regain (even if slow).
