[mila1013 0]

hi all,

not sure where to post this but I was wondering if those who were a band to sleeve revisions that developed a leak could chime in? I know tiffykins had one, but not sure who else? or if you know someone else who has had a leak on here, i think there was a gal heftynetty or something like that? but i can't locate her? anyway any info on how many people have had this complication post banding would be appreciated, and for those who have gone through this, i am very sorry. I will travel down the band to sleeve sometime in the future, waiting now to heal....thanks for you help

Mila

There's another forum, gastricsleevesupport.com and there's a person there who had a leak. I'm not sure if if was band to sleeve. The Aussie surgeons tend to wait at least 3 months between band removal and sleeving to allow the stomach tissue to settle before reoperating.
