I will be having a surgery this week 5 months after lap band for some uterine issues I have been having.

Are there any risks or issues I should know of?

I just had my hysterectomy on December 22nd. I was told I didn't need an unfill by my band surgeon and my gynecologist. I wish I wouldn't have listened.

If your abdomen is sensitive to fills and if you had some restriction just from having the lap band placed (like me), then you should probably unfill. If you aren't that sensitive to getting fills anyway, then you may be fine. Go with your gut instict.
