Hi, I just recently joined and was hoping to find some other people who also had Band to Sleeve revision around the same time I did. I had my lap band in 2010 and had all the usual complications. On December 20th 2013 I had the band removed and the sleeve done all in the same procedure. I was hoping to find some others to keep in touch and provide each other support throughout the stages! I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!

Heartburn is still a problem. What to do? Everything else is going great! I am down 25 pounds. Woo hoo!

I had terrible heartburn for a while too. I take omeprazole daily which was only helping for maybe half the day. I talked to my doctor and am now taking carafate three times a day in addition to the omeprazole. My advice is talk to your doctor, they should be your partner and should fix the problem in no time!
