As A Bander, What Is Your Opinion Of The Sleeve? Would You Get It?
If my insurance company covered it I would literally be getting the sleeve tomorrow. Only because man-made devices can fail. Lucky me, I get to be one of the statistics! Still love my band though.

Introduce Yourself
Hey Vegas Losers! Thought it would be nice to have our own group. I just moved here in August, so I had to choose a new surgeon. I decided to go with Dr. Umbach. Turns out I probably have a leak! He has never been able to get any liquid out of my port (we've tried 3 times.) I was banded on 1-26-11, and now I am waiting on getting a replacement. My insurance (tricare) denied it. The surgeons office is working on getting it approved now.
