I just read that I don't know what band rebuild was but I'm loopy from the medicine lol!! I'm just glad that band is out of me he said it was eroding also

so I went into the hospital yesterday morning for my revision.. band to sleeve. I was so excited so when I woke up from anesthesia the surgeon told me he could not do the sleeve because my stomach was so damaged from the band. so I have been banned rebuild and he says we could try in 6 months and possibly be healed he said there was no way he was going to touch my stomach with staples. I would have leaked for sure. I'm home and disappointed but I'm glad that he took the band out of me.

Good luck jillb...sending healing thoughts your way and here's to a speedy recovery :-)

Thanks guys :-) I truly believe that things are meant to happen. Wether it be God, fate or destiny...I'm going with the flow. I'm spending the night, in the Hosp...sore from the sites where he took my band out. Goodnight all ...prayers for a safe and speedy recovery for all of you new sleevers :-)

Bad news....my band hurt my stomach so bad that he took out the band and sewed me up. He said my stomach needs to heal for several months before he sleeves me. Too high a risk for a leak. ..bummer ....hope you all are doing great!!! :-)

Prayers for a safe surgery :-)

Chapstick, toothbrush and gas strips...cell phone and charger.

Good luck!!! I'm going in today also...wow!!! This is unreal and so exciting!!! See you soon...sending out prayers :-)

Amen!!

Thank you:-) sending prayers out to you too. I'm hoping to get back to the site tonight after surgery. :-)
