My brother is desperately wanting to have the sleeve but his insurance does not cover it. He went to see a doctor who says that if he has a hiatal hernia he can do the surgery for around $4000.00 as...

I thought the same thing! But honestly, the two week pre-op, I found the will power that I never knew I had, BUT I kept telling myself that its only 2 weeks!! After the surgery I am so thankful to...
