update on my revision journey

Feb 19, 2014

my doctor's office called me yesterday 2/19/14 and stated they are sending my paperwork to the insurance company and that my doctor wrote a wonderful letter so now i'm waiting fingers crossed that i get approved for removal of the band and vsg

they called me to set up dates for nutrtionist visit, sign paper work, pre-op testing and surgery date the plan is to have it all in one surgery (hoping i'm approved by my insurance) so i need all the prayers i can get its been along process but hopefully i'll have good news

PLANNING A RE-VISION

Dec 10, 2013

The band is not working for me hasn't worked for me in years haven't had liquid in the band for well over a yr 1/2 every time i got a fill i had to go back and get it un-filled i'm always constipated and having heartburn its the worst then when i went to the doctor he said it seems as though my port is bend and its rather hard to even get a fill but it doesn't matter anyway because of the issues i'm having

so now i'm on my way to a band removal and hopefully if insurance is willing a revision to vsg i have gained all my weight back and i'm just embarrassed because i went through all this pain to have to get the band removed and try for another surgery and i actually was doing very good with the band and then it stopped working and was causing me so many problems
