I do think it is easier when you do it together. I wish you both luck. At first I kind of regretted it, not being able to eat what I want and all but man, 44 lbs later, I am loving it.!!!!!!

There seem to be quite a few of us that are revising so we get to learn together! I think it will definitely help that you and your wife are doing this together. Good luck!

I had a band to sleeve revision and I am sooo happy with the results. You all will love your sleeves i comparison to the band. Good luck!

I am almost 4 weeks out from revision. My incisions are almost healed. I haven't slimmed or gotten stuck even one time. I am already eating pretty normally. There is a very light feeling of pressure when I have had enough. I am definitely not hungry after I eat. I went to a dessert reception the other night and I just didn't want any. That is a first for me. I am so glad to have the band out. It felt like a time bomb ready to give me a problem. The last time I went for a fill it was 300.00. I do not miss that! I felt weak the week after surgery but I was thinking to day. I cannot remember feeling this well in a very long time. I am so glad I did this. I do feel sorry for my husband. He has paid for a lap band, a sleeve for my daughter (she has lost 100 lbs since last July) and a sleeve for me. He is a very kind man that wants what we want! Good luck to everyone...it is awesome!

I had the revision done on the 29th. And I'm already a lot better. I paid 18500. I'm self pay but my surgeon was the best.

I also was self pay. I had my Lap Band here in the states in 2006 and paid $17,000. I had the revision to the VSG in June 2011 in Mexico with Dr. Aceves for $11,200.

I had three bands done in Mexico and almost died. It's not worth the risk for me. Nor you. Your life is worth it.
