Hiya thankyou for your reply. I am just really nervous and hoping they can do it all in one procedure. I just feel like I have failed as I have put most of my weight back on and I feel so down about it x
Hi there! I had my band for 6 years before it broke. I was upset but my doctor assured me it was no problem- he would remove the band and create a sleeve. His did it in one procedure and I love the sleeve. I had a super quick recovery and have more energy and enthusiasm than I have had in years.Hi all, I have a gastric band and have had it for 5 years. This is the second band I've had as the first one broke. This one is now also leaking so I am due to have a gastric sleeve instead. Has anyone gone from a band to a sleeve and what is the noticeable differences between the 2? Many thanks xx

Thankyou I will have a look xThere's actually an entire section of the forum dedicated to those who have gone from band-to-sleeve. You can see it here -- http://www.bariatricpal.com/forum/394-band-to-gastric-sleeve-revisions/

I had my first band 5 years ago and it snapped after 6 weeks. I then had it replaced 3 weeks later and now this one is leaking. I have had nothing but problems with it and finally am having it removed on the 2nd of July and having a gastric sleeve on the same day. Good luck for tomorrow x
