Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

yes ma'am. i think the food would actually have to mix with your stomach acids too. if you are getting stuck in your chest then now that i think about it, i dont think it would damage anything. sorry!

Well early out you got to be gentle on your pouch
it takes a long time for that staple line to heal!!!
BUT i doubt you have hurt it.
JUSt be sure your surgeon is aware of the
frequency of your throwing up.
ITS important....

i think as long as you arent puking like for months straight, from the gut, you're good with respect to anything rotting or burning away. i just wish we could get you to stop puking for good

Well, you could damage the esophagus with acid reflux, but no the pouch itself, unless there's major stress on the staple lines.

ugg.. When I was in my teens I did the bulimia thing for awhile. And throwing up is hard on your mouth and throat and your teeth. I used to brush all the time just because I had to hide the fact I was doing that. But down the line I found I was lucky that I did because I know others who had tooth problems from so much vomit. I hope I don't have as much vomiting after my surg. It is kinda scary for me. I don't do it often I have to be pretty sick.. But it brings back some bad memories.
