My cardiologist feels i can come thru the surgery fine but since the vert.gastric sleeve has only been done for about 3yrs. insurance does not pay for it .since it will be an out of pocket expense i can't afford it in the states.Here is my quandry...it is much less expensive in Mexico but I don't know anything about any surgeons there, only what I read on thier web sites.Can anyone one help me out? i'm forever grateful... pippyann
