Has anyone ever been perscribed steroids for the lap band? I have had non stop complications for over a year and my doctor now wants to start me on oral steroids (not sure what type, or why yet!) before removing it if they don't help. If anyone knows what they are supposed to do exactly, and any side affects with taking them please let me know!

Thanks

I am on steroids for an allergic reaction - so I can tell you side affects. You feel like your body is going too fast, very jittery and hungry all the time. I get headaches, but I am on a ton of medications on top of the steroids right now. None of this is associated with my band, but I thought the side affects might help you :-) Good Luck
