disgusted with the lapband

I have not been on this site for a long time and I hope i do not get negative comments for this post. I was banded in august of 2011. i started out at 272, got down on my own to 249 the day of surgery, i lost very very slowly, doing everything they said to do and exercising, i got down to 222 last summer, then everything halted. My surgeon is rude and was very irritated with me for not losing more weight and I tried to explain to him that i have other conditions that affect my weight loss , mostly pcos, pcos makes it very difficult to lose weight, he litterally said that was bull sh.....t. so i have not been back to him for 7 months. i can either eat right or i throw up. i have gained weight back and am back up to 244 almost what i weighed at surgey day. im disgusted with the band, i feel like a fat bolemic person. i eat like a bird and throw up constantly. i gain weight even though i dont eat and when i do eat it is healthy food. I am going to a different surgeon and discussing a revision from band to sleeve. i was wondering if anyone out there has had a revision. and please no negative comments. i did what i was suppose to do for the band, it just doesnt work for me. thanks for listening.
