Hi!

I too am scheduled for VSG in August. Since my insurance does not cover the surgery, I am having the surgery in Dallas, TX.  Only my family knows that I am having the surgery and I am extremely skeptical about informing my co-workers and friends about it due to overwhelming questions.  I am looking for a support group to even someone to exchange emails with regarding my upcoming surgery.  Any and all replies of support or information would be greatly appreciated.  I hope to hear from someone soon!

 My insurance doesn't cover bariatric surgery, so it's off to Mexico for me.

 Hi Shelly!  I live in Biloxi but work in the Gulfport/Long Beach area... I'm scheduled for surgery in November.  Your date is right around the corner!!

Just found out that my sister's bypass, which was done a few years ago, was only 80% bypassed.  In other words, 20% of her stomach had never been closed.  She didn't lose much weight after surgery.  Of course, her doctor blamed her and said she wasn't following the rules.  She's recently had bad reflux and underwent a procedure, by a different doctor,  this morning when the discovery was made.  
Anyone else have this problem??
