my surgeon said it was much safer to do it in two procedures, I had my band removed 2 weeks ago & getting the sleeve Nov 1....

I have had my lapband since 2007..it slippes halfway down my stomach.. i had it removed yesterday..really sore!!!! go back to dr n two weeks to set up my apt for sleeve..excited but scared!!!!

Lapband removed 3 days ago, should i rest or should i get up try get stronger??

Good Luck I had my band removed yesterday:))

My husband had his lapband removed last year and sleeve put in same time, he had a leak & had a lot of trouble..we both had band in 2007..we both lost no weight with band....lots complications, He had his sleeve july 2012 has went from 389 to 205 now...and is doing ok, has bad reflux, now a year later i decide to have my band out & sleeve put in, im going to a different dr & he said he would never do those 2 operations at one time because the stomach needs to heel before putting sleeve in & its safer this way...so im havin my band removed tues sept 17 then sleeve 6 weeks later......

I am getting my lapband I have had for 6 years removed on tuesday 9-17, & 6 weeks later having the sleeve done....im so nervous:)
