I'll find out for sure tomorrow. But I can do a gastric sleeve-they will cover that-so I'm assuming they would cover a fix for the band. Just not sure which would be the best way to go...

When I got stuck-I tried very hard to relax and standup, raised my arms straight up and kinda reached as high as I could, one arm higher than the other-kinda slowly and it moved things down. It was kinda like when a baby gags or chokes a bit, you held up their arm and shook it a little? It seems to help. Good luck

Congratulations!! Go slow and use the help that's offered! And really-congratulations again!!

I had my lapband done a few years ago. After almost a year, my band had slipped and would not hold a full fill. I had paid for the surgery myself-insurance wouldn't go it-and then found I would have to pay too much than I could afford to get it fixed. Now, insurance will cover this. I am wondering if anyone else had this experience and if so, did you have it fixed and if so, has it held now? I have a Dr appt on Monday next and would like to go in as informe d as possible...
