OK, I had rny 28 mths ago, Lost 120 lbs,but I havent lost any weight since around 10 mth post op. Around the same time I started having eppisodes of major pain just under my ribs that ran across each side and into my back I went to my surgeon and to the e r, a few times they never found anything just that my liver emzimes was high but they hadnt really done much, Everytime I would go my surgeon would be out of town or in surgery or something.  I have now gained right at 50 lbs and desided I had better go see her again and see whats going on. Well shes sending me for tests an upper g i to see if it shows anything. What could this be? Has anyone done this and have to have a revision or what? Or is it me? I feel like Im starving all the time. Im ready to give up and say forget it Ill stay fat.  Also if I do have to have a revision what  are the steps to getting one?  Will I have to go through all the testing and things again, And do I have to get reapproved and will ky medicaid pay for it ? Anyone with any info I would greatly appriciate it. Thanks alot

El Azul's is in the little shopping plaza across from the new Food City - near the Big Sandy Community College.  The second Prestonsburg exit off of 23.

The shopping plaza also has a FoodLand, Dollar General Store, Rite Aid, Tropical Isle Laundry and Tanning, and a Furniture store.   El Azul's is in the middle!

Hope you can make it.
