Sleeve or Bypass... help!
Sherrischeffler replied to Alexandro's topic in Gastric Bypass Surgery Forums
LesbianDad30 , sometimes the best diet & medicine Don’t control reflux, I assure you that. I’ve taken the best & cheapest reflux meds they’re only temporary fix . But back to stats the Bypass has best weight loss success rate & but out for many yrs before sleeve.i have many friends on here, co -workers & ppl I’ve met whom agree with bypass stats..as we know each person is different & btw I never knew I had reflux until testing before surgery, also some I have tried foods that shouldn’t bother/agitate my reflux but they do six yrs later after continued monitoring.. to each their own but do your research throughly before making a major surgical decision. -

Tell your employer they violated your medical rights between company& employee & you dont appreciate it nor do you care to hear her gossiping about your business.

what types of skin surgery are you wanting? I know of a few covered by insurance companies. .

try using Vagisil powder rub into hands & sprinkle into panties/pants.. also if skin is that low at apron area your local plastic surgeon can recommend to insurance & usually they pay for it even medicare/medicaid pay for it =skin removal. .good luck!! Breast reduction also usually covered ...
