Sydney Sleevers in 2016

Hi there everyone! I'm a nervous newbie who is just starting her journey into the world of bariatric surgery. I've had weight issues for years and resultant complications has just made me realise that this is probably my only option at this point. Is anyone else in the Sydney area undergoing their procedures this year? Would love to hear some stories and some advice, especially in regards to early release of super or getting it done through Medicare. Xx

    Hi

    Not from Sydney but 4 hours south in Regional NSW. I have been banded for 9 years and has lost 60 kg, keeping majority off. Having a few issues lately and have gained 14 kg back.

    My surgeon suggested changing over to a sleeve. So here my journey starts again. I am to have my band removed on 15th August and then I will be Sleeved on 5th December. I'm feeling extremely nervous about removing my band, but understand for my own safety it's needed.
