I'm meeting my surgeon Dr Dilemans ( Belgium ) the day before my surgery next week ( OMG NEXT WEEK!!!!)

He has operated on a few people I know .

During emails he has suggested I may be better with the gastric bypass rather than sleeve due to having a lap band that had to be removed ( nothing to do with band complication of other surgery ) He said the bypass works much better after the sleeve but I'm worried it's a more complicated operation and with a bmi of 31 is it necessary to go for the bypass ? What would you do ?

I realize this may be too late. but i followed my doctor's advice and went bypass.

I my self went from band to gastric bypass only because my health with diabetes and severe over weight was the best. Yea I will say it was scary. .but definitely no regrets just had a baby he turn 1in may no more meds after my second week of post op my diabetes gone!! ! Asthma practically gone! !! Joint pain gone!!!.
