Hi, I have had to have belly button hernia surgery in 2005 and then a hysterectomy in 2007 and last week another belly button hernia surgery. Was just wondering if all that scare tissue would make the sleeve surgery more difficult or make it more difficult to recover? I want to have the sleeve surgery but I am a couple years away from it. I just want to get all the information that I can in the mean time. Thanks everyone for your help.

I would talk to a surgeon about that. You can go to the informational seminar and ask the question without having to "start" the process if you are looking to have the surgery in the future. The surgeon will be able to better answer your question.

Thanks Nancy, I am planning on going to one in October. I wish I could get it done sooner but just started a new job and am waiting till I've been there a year so I can get leave easier.
