Hi Lmom1980 ! Sorry to hear of your experience. Is that a common problem after gp? How do they fix it? Is doctor watkins able to fix it? I was told that they cover 2years of follow up care regarding the plication. I thank you for responding. I live in pa and i am not sure where i would even be able to get the sleeve done-i have considered it. I am worried about leakage yet my sister had bypass 7 years ago with no issues or leakage. Hope to hear from you soon & I hope you get some kind of Relief!
