Help! I need Help!

Will try to make this short.

I was banded (self paid) in March 2007, started at 235 and got to 174. Was at 174 for many years, wouldn't gain and wouldn't loosee, and I was ok with that, but my doc said I was a good candidate for a plication and it would go hand in hand with the band. So March 2013 I self paid for the plication. I felt like it did nothing as I continued to stay at 174, didn't loose anything. up till may 2016. This year, may of 2016 I started regurgitating at night an would wake up drowning in my own puke. Went to se doctor, took xrays and barium swallow and everything looked good,my band looked good and he took out all 2.5 out of my band, just to give my esophagus/band a break for a couple of months. We waited a bit and in July, 2016 added 1.75 to my bad. Then was good so went back for another fill in sept, to total 2.0 on my band. Between all this I gained 16lbs. Seems like I'm gaining again and not loosing even after the fills. My doctor suggested getting it removed and having a gastric bypass instead.

After my last fill in Sept 2016, I have a gained another 2-3lbs. And have had this small pressure/soreness that's on my chest right about my breast and goes to my back. I feel it more at night and when I inhale or exhale it gets a bit stronger with like a pinching feeling. It feels like my lungs hurt, went to seperate doctor thinking it was my lungs, and they found nothing. My lungs are good. I havr No regurgitation, not getting food stuck, Water goes down well.

My doctor has mentioned a few times to have the band removed and converting it to a gastric bypass instead. And I'm ok with that. But here is where my depression comes in. After the Doctor found out my insurance won't cover the band removal nor pay the gastric by-pass, he said my band was fine and to keep working with it.

But now I have this pressure/soreness and scared that it might be the band

When I got my band back in 2007 it came out of my pocket. I used money that was gifted to me. So here I am depressed and having issues with my band. Insurance won't cover anything at all! I am broke as hell! My family and I lost everything a couple of yrs ago and have not been able to get out of this hole. We are living pay check to paycheck and sometimes don't even have enough for groceries. On top of all my family worries and stress I am now stressing out on loosing my band. I don't want to loose it and be fat all over again if I had the money I would do this in a heart beat. And getting financing is out of the question, our credit is trash so no one would finance us or give us a loan.

Has anyone been in this predicament and found an insurance company that they could enroll in that covered a new surgery?

Are there such thing as getting an insurance company that will cover it that won't cost and arm and a leg and your 1st born?

Has anyone found any other solutions?

Anyone have any suggestions/advice or something that worked out for them and got the band removed and got another surgery?

I pray daily so that I won't loose my band or if I do that God can provide a way possible for gastric bypass. I feel so lost, broken, sad, worried and depressed thinking that I will loose the band and not be able to get another type of surgery I don't want to go back to my old self, when I weighed so much. I had tried everything under the sun to loose weight and nothing workedm. getting the band was a life saver for me and my heart is in a million pieces thinking about the possibility of loosing it and not being able to get another surgery. Please God help me
