ladybug's journey

Sorry you had to experience all that! It's stories like yours that had me start researching the sleeve. Let us know how your revision goes...good luck to you!

Welcome David and good luck to you!! Keep us posted on how your appointment goes

Hi Crystal! I was also considering the band but have decided on the sleeve instead. I did not like the idea of a foreign object in me and I've been reading so many of the stories of band issues and those having the sleeve revision, I feel the sleeve is right for me. I also was submitted to insurance on Friday and now I'm *trying* to be patient waiting to hear back lol....good luck to you on your journey!!

Good luck to you Lynn!! Keep as posted as well...hope all goes well for you!

Thanks ladies!

Oh my....what an experience!! Thank you sharing! I'm still pre-op and soaking up all information I can.....I'm definitely putting a tarp and a Costco set of paper towels in my car just in case!

Amazing!! Keep up the great work...you look great!!

Hello all! First of all I must say I am SO glad I found this forum as I was seriously thinking of doing the lapband but the more I've read and compared, the sleeve is definitely the right choice for me. I have completed the items required by my surgeon and insurance (blood work, sleep study and psych eval) and everything was submitted this afternoon for approval. I'm excited and nervous all at once but looking forward to the challenges and changes awaiting me
