I was banded in March 2007 and was able to lose 65 lbs before gaining it back again due to the band malfunctioning and extreme nausea and a damaged esophagus. The only thing that felt better and helped the nausea was eating unfortunately. So I'm now about 2 lbs. less than when I got the band 5 1/2 years ago. So discouraging.

I'm having a revision to RNY on December 10. Fingers crossed! I'm hopeful but very nervous because of the prior problems with the band and having to have surgery again.
