  1. hi, not only is this my 1st post here, but this is my first post anywhere so please bear with me. i already posted something on here a couple of minutes ago but don't; know where it went so here i go again. i had gastric surgery to remove 9" diverticulitis large colon. all went well the incision was from the bottom of my chest to pass my belly button. after i went back to work i did heavy lifting a ended up with 16 hernias. the doctor reopened the incision and place fabric across my stomach. now i have gained a lot of weight and feel that i am stressing the muscles from a sagging gut. before this all happen i weighted 235 lbs. now i weight close to 280 and am 5'9". blood pressure is up and i am stressing about pains on my now 2 year old incision. does this sound like insurance may help? thanks for your input. Dean
  2. hi all, considering going with the band and have questions of course regarding the procedure. I had gastoric surgery 3 years ago and was cut from the bottom of my chest to pass my belly button. I had nine inches of colon removed and stitched back up. all was well until I went back to work and did heavy lifting. I developed 16 hernias and had to be reopened and have fabric placed across my stomach area. I now have gained alot of weight and worry about tearing muscle from my drooping stomach. Does this sound like insurance would pay for this? thanks Dean
