Band to sleeve revision scheduled for October 20th.

I am having a band to sleeve revision on October 20th. I am super excited and any advice would be welcome. I had an easy recovery after the lap band surgery but my band slipped after a year and I am now getting the sleeve. Thanks in advance.

I had a very easy recovery from band removal, I mean super easy... like I felt great within days. I had another easy recovery from the Sleeve too. However, I did feel more tired and run down after this surgery. I went back to work in 7 days, but I was pretty beat when I got home. For me it was comparable to the lapband surgery. Rough for about 3 days, and then exponentially better each day after that.

I sure wish I had just had the sleeve to begin with! It would have spared me 2 surgeries... Good luck with your upcoming surgery, it is one of the best decisions I have made.
