    I'm out....

    My date is March 10, I will have my lap band removed as well. It is a big decision but I am going to focus on March 11. I was talked into the lap band which was not a good decision, so moving on to a better one. Hang in there.

    @@banded2004 That is certainly something for me to think about! Thank you for that info, I will research that group.

    This is my first post. I have had the band for 11 years with much of the same issues of GERD, gastritis, hiatal hernia and vomiting. Finally I am done with it after getting a second opinion from another bariatric surgeon who does not think highly of the band. After completing all the work to get a revision, hopefully to a bypass, Blue Cross Blue Shield has denied me for "insufficient medical or surgical complications". Evidently only infection, erosion or slippage will count. Needless to say I am very disappointed. I am 64 years old, retired and considering Mexico and very disappointed in US insurance. Any advice is welcome.
