Thank you so much for sharing your story! It was wonderful to read!!

I wish that I had a crystal ball six years ago when I made the decision to have the LapBand placed.
I wish that I had known that I would spend thousands of dollars on fills and unfills because of the narrow range I could tolerate.
I wish I had known that I would spend years chasing the elusive "green zone" that could change at the drop of a hat.
I wish I had known that TOM, salt, even air pressure changes could impact how
tight the band felt.
I wish that I had known that my esophagus could eventually become "tired" from the effort it took to get food through the band.
There are many more I could add, but I won't.
Needless to say, I'm looking forward to revision to VSG in less than two weeks.

I wish I would have known that it wouldn't work for me and it would cause me more problems. That I would have episode after episode for the last 5 years. And now have to have a revision to rny. I wish I would have known I would gain all my weight back and my comorbidities would all have come back. I wish I would have gone with the rny in the first place
