  1. 11 Year Old Lapband...has anyone else had one this long and been revised?

    SharonRHughes replied to Sleevestriss's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    I had mine for 10 years and got a Sleeve revision. So much better. Dr. Said it was tangled in scar tissue when he took it out. Best thing I ever did!!

  5. Depression

    SharonRHughes posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    I am almost 1 month post op. I have been sick with sinus, viral infection, coughing, no appetite. I am so depressed......even down 25lbs that I can't make myself eat or barely drink. My body aches and I promise I try! I can't shake it....just feeling horrible. I have had no trouble and have healed great....other than my vitamins make me vomit. Anyone else have this trouble?

    My lap band/sleeve revision was on Friday and I feel amazing! Back to work on Monday. I have pretty easy job. Doing great and no problems. Lots of scar tissue around band but it is gone! Yeah! This has been the best surgery I have ever had. I did lots of walking......that is key. Good luck for all whonare about to have your surgery. Sharon

  17. Band To Sleeve With Aenta?

    SharonRHughes replied to SharonRHughes's topic in Insurance & Financing
    My employer would not approve without 6 months of tests and all kinds of things I have already done. Not to mention my out of pocket would be more than the entire trip to Mexico. So off I go in December to Mexico.

  18. Is The Band That Bad?

    SharonRHughes replied to SleeveandRNYchica's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    I got my band 10 years ago and I hate it. Just as sais...choked on top hungry on the bottom. I am having revision in December. I would never recommend the band to anyone!!

  19. Asheville, Nc?

    SharonRHughes posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Anyone from Asheville or Western North Carolina?

  20. Band To Sleeve With Aenta?

    SharonRHughes posted a topic in Insurance & Financing
    Anyone approved for revision with Aenta? Did they require pre surgery nutrition or any evaluations? Even if you had it for Band? How long did approval take? Sharon

  21. Lap Bander With Appt. About Getting Sleeve On Friday!

    SharonRHughes posted a topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    Have had my Lap Band for 10 years. I have never had a decent fill. Always too tight or too loose. I have Optum Heal and almost at my deductible. Anyone have luck with them? Pretty sure my doc will do the sleeve. Do they take out band and do sleeve in one surgery? Any advice? Sharon
