if you had a reversibe obeity surgery undo 12 years ago, can I have this one.??

I had the Vertical Banded Gasoply.....surgery done back in the early 80's and 8 years later had to have it undone..the band closed up my opening for my food to go down..I also had gained back about 60 lbs. of my weight back...since it has been several years since this surgery, now I am wanting to have this new one done..I have an appt. with a doctor on July 1..if he turns me down I am going to die..When I had my first obesity surgery I weighed 238, now in the year 2002 I weigh 274 and am only 5'0"..have no engery..I got along very well with the first surgery, till the band closed off my opening...
