LAPBAND AFTER ROUXENY

I HAD ROUX N Y JAN 2000 & I HAVE GAINED ABOUT 50 BLS. I HAD REGULAR OLD FASHION SURGERY. CAN I DO A REVISION OR LAP BAND NOW? WILL MY INSURANCE COVER THIS AS I AM SCARED I WILL HAVE A STROKE. DIABITIES RUNS IN MY FAMILY. THANKS FOR HELP ELIZABETH

I had surgery origanally in june of 2000 and gained back alot of weight from what I lost but my cir****tance is a little diff but I just had a revision a few weeks ago and insurance did cover it. but I dont have the same insurance i did that covered the first one. Your are better off looking into insurance to see what they cover. I do know that most drs dont do revisions unless u still meet the requirments of the first one and thats being 100 lbs over weight or a bmi over 40. Hope that helps a little. Jess
