If you had a inguinal hernia when you were 6 years this does not affect due to the area is in the lower abdomen and if you need to do a Gastric Sleeve to loose weight there is no real contraindication to have this weight loss surgery.
Does anyone know a doctor who will do Lap-band Surgery for someone 28 BMI?
Lap Band is indicated for patients
Aug 6, 2016
For patients with a body mass index over 35 if they are diabetic or they suffer from hypertension. In your case you are not a candidate for any bariatric procedure, you only have a little overweight, we recommend you visit a nutritionist and try to have a diet as natural as possible so you can success, because sometimes the conservatives of most of the canned products condition us to gain weight.
Lap Band removal. How can I get covered?
Lap Band fill/unfill vs removal
Aug 6, 2016
If the insurance does not cover your lap band removal, the option for you is to remove the fill on your band and with this the symptoms should improve, about your silent heartburn is correct and this will be a temporary measure for you while you can get the lap band removal. For this I understand it will be a little hard to find a insurance that covers you this kind of surgery in case they did not covered the first surgery.

Lose weight with Intragastric balloon and liposuction
Aug 4, 2016
LIPOSUCTION is not a treatment for weight loss, and the gastric balloon has the only medical indication for patients how are super obese with high risk, and with the balloon they only loss 10 to 30 pounds at much to prepare them to have a definitive procedure…
