Just trying to be sure do you mean Gastric Bypass? If so I think as long as you pass the heart & lung function tests, psychological evaluation and your blood sugar is not too high that a doctor would do surgery on you. Keep in mind that different doctors have different requirements. Some won't do surgery on a patient if they are too young or too old and they make sure health wise that you are strong enough to withstand the rigors of surgery. Hope this helps, Debbie

You would have to pass the physical but your comorbidities are pretty common for those of us needing or having had WLS. I had a lap band in April 2005
