Revision Surgery Wait Time Between Band To Sleeve
kareng3966 replied to Midijola's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
well I have to go through the 7 month visit with my family dr. and all the other steps that I did with the first surgery before I can have my revision. I guess if I want insurance to pay I will just have to go with the plan. I had planned on having the surgery before I put on too much weight but I guess I will have to work harder to keep it off. - which is going to be even harder because I am going to have surgery on my foot most likely in May - and there will be no weight allowed on that foot for a month and then very little for the next. By the time I am getting over that surgery I will be nearing my time to have my sleeve surgery. I just hope I can balance my diet to not gain a lot of weight before I have that surgery. because there wont be to much exercising. I am so happy you are so close to your surgery. I will be praying for you. Just remember the goal you will be reaching for when you are struggling through the bad days. Just grasp that picture of the smaller jeans and not squeezing into those tinny chairs. -

I had my band put in december 2006, at first I did well and lost over 100 pounds. But I was tightened to much one time and did not realize that I was not eating developed some nutrition problems that had some sever effects on my body so dr removed most of the Fluid and I went a few years with no fluid and gained some wright bach. Then when the band was removed oh goodness the weight seemed to just jump on and has not stopped. -

Had my band removed in november 2013, due to slipping. I was not happy. I did noi t knoi w about the sleeve until after lossing my band. I began my research then contacted my insurance company only to find out my band could have been replaced the day the old one was removed. Oh well I decided after all the research on the sleeve that it was a better fit for me than the band. So I start my new journey this week, my dr office called today my insurance will pay so I have an appointment on Wednesday to begin my new journey and new life style.. I plan for this to have a more successful story than the first. -
