Almost 2 years out and back to surgery I go.
Well my worst fears have been confirmed. I will be back to surgery on 8/10. My band has slipped and my stomach has prolapsed through the top of my band. The last two weeks have been horrible. I can't sleep and I can't eat. I am even more so nervous for this surgery than the first. My physician says I am rare only 5% of individuals have band slips. Well does that make me a higher risk for other complications? Please keep me in your prayers. Good luck to all, and here is hoping the 2nd time is the charm. I am going back in to surgery weighing 160. I should be exstatic that I am down 80 pounds since the beginning of my journey, but I can't help feel like a failure because of the slipped band. I know I need to be more careful this time around. That is if my band can be saved. I pray that it can be, as I would be lost without it!
