I had my VSG on May 29, 2012 in Mexico, and now no one will touch me at all. I called all the bariatric clinics near me and they said they will not see because they did not perform the surgery. My doctor said if I have any problems I will have to go to the ER. My insurance company said if they determine that any of my problems have to do with my surgery, they will not cover it. So even if I have to have my gall-bladder taken out, it will be because of my weigh loss (my surgery) guess who will have to pay for it (all of it) me. So far I am doing great and I pray it keeps going this way. I feel that I finally started doing something to help me and I'm being punished.
