Alright so I got an update. I can get my lap band removed. They say that it may not be the lap band that is causing the discomfort though. It doesnt make at all sense because before the surgery I did not feel discomfort. I did call the doctor and was able to get a meeting with him and the other doctors there so that is a good thing. I hope it is a quick thing and they are able to fix this.

When you go to your appointment, be specific. Tell the staff exactly where the pain is; whether it occurs at certain times (e.g., after eating or when you bend over or whatever else). If you don't give them all the info you can, they'll be handicapped.

They may think that some blood work or perhaps ultrasound or other radiology is in order. If so, it's to help them diagnose what's going on with you.
