I have had my lap- band for 3 years. I am what you call a geriatric bander. I regret having it placed and can't wait to get it out of my body. It has been a plague. I have been sick and plagued with migraines and chronic sinusitis since. Being a nurse and just to note, I try to discourage anyone from having this done. It's also painful everytime I eat. " They" have checked it many times and never seem to find anything wrong with it. If I can give any advice at all, save yourself from all that exposure to radiation from fills and do it right the first time.... Have a gastric sleeve! Thank you! And I thought this was going to make me healthier? I can't even work now, the migraines are so bad...It has ruined my life!
