More surgery and I feel like a failure

Hello, I had lap band last January. Thou I have lost weight but have not been doing well. I have had a a port issue from the beginning. Which consist of constant soreness. It went further and I had sever pain and ended in the hospital in for 4 days. With no explanation of why. I have lost 40 pounds and am happy with it. I finally got approval for port revision surgery along with the possibility of removal of adhesion. I also may have a hernia and my band has been empty for a long time. I also have reflux bad. I have no fills since July. A lot of not doing well is partially my fault as I have no restriction and I am hungry. I hope this surgery helps and I can have a fill and get back into the swing of things. Has anyone have similar issues? Would love to hear from you.
