I had the band surgery in 2011.
I had nothing but problems with band slipping . I would get a fill ( the most I had was 8ccd) and three weeks later w/ o eating the wrong thing the band would slip and I would have reflux and vomitting and they would have to take all out and start all over . I just had the band removed and went with the sleeve . Feel so much berter because of the progression of weight loss.
