I was banded in June of this year and tomorrow im going to have surgery on my knee. My question is: have any of u had another type of surgery after lap band and if so, did it affect the tightness of ur band?

Hi stephanie, I just had a partial hysterectomy 2 weeks ago, and I haven't noticed any changes in my band....

Ok thanks

I have been banded 2 years. I had thyroid surgery a month ago and I had to have 4 ccs removed before I had my surgery. The surgeon didn't want any complications. I am ready to get a fill, but holding off until after the holidays. I have gained about 10 lbs., but sure it will come off once I get my fill. You should speak to the surgeon doing your surgery and your lapband surgeon to see what is best for you.

No changes to my band as a result of surgery. The only time I notice changes is once in a while when I fly, the band seems a little tighter for a day or two.

Thanks everyone for replying, I did call my doc too.
