I keep seeing all these stories about banders get revisions to sleeve. The lap band helped me lose 40lbs I guess the rest was me and my band making me throw up. I've had my band since 2004. I'm wondering now if I'm even a candidate for revision bc I'm only at 211lbs. Is that even heavy enough to be considered?? I'm calling my Dr today bc I just had another fill and the reflux is back and some of the throwing up. We had taken some out to give my stomach a "rest." Your story is so inspirational, thank you so much for sharing. I wish they had had the sleeve when I had my band done all those years ago.
Where R my Struggling Bandsters? There's still hope!
