Question:
stomach staple line disruption

I had a vbg done in 1993, and now have a lg staple line disruption. my policy from bcbs of ill states that it will cover only 1 weight loss surgery but will cover complations. by bmi is 35.6 but they will not pay to have this fixed they say there is no complations from this to make this med. nessary to have fixed.    — hansonsb (posted on November 18, 2006)

staple line disruptions generally cause bad hard to treat ulcers, the only real solution to them is another surgery. do you have ulcers pain?
