Hoping for a revision
Hi everyone! Hoping for some help and guidance. I had the RNY May 2003, and was very successful with a 150 pound weightloss down to 145. After time and the birth of my last child 45 pounds has been added back on.
I do believe I wasnt doing as well as I should with my eating habits so I went back to basics. I did one of those "bootcamp" exercise" for 1 month in addition to 45 minutes cardio. After the "bootcamp" I continued my exercise for 3-4 days a week. I also paid close attention to my calorie intake. However, the weight wasn't moving.
I called and made my yearly check up appointment with my surgeon. I am hoping to speak with him about a revision. Can anyone give me some guidance on a revision:
1. Does it have to be medically necessary? I am 50 pounds over my lowest weight.
2. I have BCBS POS GA insurance, do they pay for the revision?
3. Do I need to ask my surgeon to check my pouch?
4. Is surgeons willing to do the revision?
