cruummbs 36 Posted April 9, 2015 Months ago I posted a topic "Anyone Have A Complicated Surgery". A couple of people on this forum couldn't believe I posted such a horrible topic. I guess they don't think shit happens. Feb 23, 2015 I was scheduled for a Gastric Sleeve procedure. My surgeon woke me up from the anesthesia and stated "Sorry I was not able to complete the procedure" due to scar tissue. I went home the next day confused, in pain and determined to get this procedure done. I had many many useless consultations. A surgeon even suggested I go to Mexico and get the Gastric Ballon ????. Researching the Internet I found lovely Dr Reem Shari ha at NY Presbyterian. She performed my Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty procedure. I am so happy that I am a strong woman I do not allow other people comments, actions or decisions determine my destiny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LSF 264 Posted April 9, 2015 What is that procedure? Were you originally going in for a band to sleeve revision? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B Autumn 20 Posted April 9, 2015 Sorry to hear people were so negative about your other post. It's probably a knee jerk reaction to the fears about their own surgery. Really glad you found a surgeon you could work with. Congratulations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
