I had gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico in November 2011. I initially lost 88 pounds but then got some pretty bad acid reflux and gained about 35 pounds. I lost a few but then just couldn't seem to get it moving again. An EGD confirmed by sleeve was stretched and even though my insurance pays for weight loss surgery and revisions, they denied mine. I'm now scheduled for a revision to mini bypass on March 31, 2016, in Mexico. I thought the sleeve was my second chance to get healthy but I guess sometimes we need a third chance to get it right.
