Your BMI may qualify for bariatric surgery although insurance requirements vary. Some insurances require you to have a major comorbidity related to obesity like obstructive sleep apnea, diabetes or hypertension. Some consider arthritis and some do not, some require 2 and some require 1 and some require none. Most patients have tried multiple diet plans before but it would be important to know that you are sticking to an organized structured meal plan that works for you as well as an exercise…
Can I get a Gastric Balloon after having muscle repair?

Yes you are still a candidate for the intragastric balloon. The only contraindication is surgery on your intraabdominal stomach. Not your abdominal muscle.
Thanks for the question
Which gastric balloon is the best? I’m 38 year old female, I weigh 175 pounds looking to lose 40 p
Orbera Gastric Balloon

I would preface my answer that I am most comfortable with the Orbera Gastric Balloon. I will tell you the reshape balloon the two balloon system is no longer in the market in the United states. The swallowable balloon (Obalon) remains FDA approved but the results for weight loss are minimal.
How would I know if the balloon deflates while it is in my stomach?

Your urine will turn green from the blue dye that is placed in the balloon. This is temporary and harmless. As the blue dye combines with your urine you get a color of green in the toilet bowel. You should be seeing your doctor as part of health and fitness program as well. If this does happen you should make sure you contact your doctor.
