That's a pretty grey area. I had a tubal a couple of years before my wls and my tubal surgeon told me that she had a lot of trouble doing it because of all of my adhesions and when I mentioned that to my surgeon, the VSG was a go. I had, had 4 previous abdominal surgeries including to caesarians, appendix removal and my tubal.
RNY on 10/30/12
