Would I be a canidate?

I am considering a revision. I was banded in spring of 08. I believe I had 4 fills and 3 were over fills where I could not get any fluid through. I went to the ER and they took the fluid out and I have not been back since. I was wanting to know If any surgeon would even consider it and if Insurance would pay for it. Feel free to share any and all info from your own experience! Thanks in advance!!

Yes!! You would be a good candidate. Have you lost any weight? I was banded in 2008, did really well the first 2 years and then a too tight fill was the start of my downfall. My surgeon who put in the band was 100% behind the revision. He said he's been doing it with all his lapband patients. I was lucky that I have a different insurance than I had back then because some will only do it once in a lifetime
