I have seven more lbs to lose before I can have LB surgery. Getting frustrated; ( I need a support team/walking buddy/buddies.

I originally wanted the sleeve because I've seen & heard so many success stories, but I became worried about not being able to take MS Meds. Good luck to you on your weight loss journey! Keep me posted how your progress is going!

I don't understand ? You can't take some "meds" if you are sleeved ? I mean I don't take any now but how about in the future ?

By altering the stomach it also reduces the amount of nutrients your body can absorb. There are certain Ms meds I take that cannot be crushed & need to absorb slowly. Thankfully they are small enough to take with the band. Lot's of people online crush there meds or use liquid meds & do great after the sleeve/band. Some even stopped having to take meds. I would love the sleeve but unfortunately it's not going to work for me. Just make sure you bring it up on your next doctor visit.

I will thank you soooo much for the info
