Had the band done 6 years ago. Lost 160 lbs but had nothing but issues with vomiting.nausea. and unable to eat. My insurance now pays for sleeve and its all approved I am excited for the surgery and hopefully no more vomiting.

the vomiting with band was from anything even liquid I think my body bated the band.

I tell people the band like any weightloss surgery is a tool follow the rules and be strong

Excellent!

I too am a band to sleeve patient. At first I had some trouble differentiating between the Lap-band pain I'd get all the time when eating and the full signal from my sleeve. I'm very happy those chest pains and vomiting from the band are gone.

Best wishes for and easy conversion.
