      I had the same, band removal and VSG in one. We take a little more time to heal, so just keep positive and patient. I haven't looked back, am 3 and half months out and it's all GrEaT!!!

    I know you are ready to get the band off. From what I've heard the band makes you throw up a lot! Good luck and God bless! Do you have to heal from getting the band off then get sleeved?

    It does make you throw up a lot. I don't have to heal first. I'm getting sleeved at the same time. Thankfully I won't have to go through another surgery.
