Hello! I was banded with the Swedish gastric band about 10 years ago. It had worked great until about 3 years ago, when the tube popped off the port and all the liquid came out. I gained most of my weight back. Had anyone had revision surgery in the Raleigh-Fayetteville area and can recommend a surgeon? Thank you in advance for your answers.

I had my surgery 10 years ago. I have learned over my life to take info from all and insult none. My perch is as precarious as the rest of humanity. ???? -

This is a bummer as we want to get my son the gastric sleeve. -

We took my son to a seminar and I informed the surgeon that if folks could live on a liquid diet, they wouldn't need him. I had the band in years ago and no one did a lot liquid diet prior. My opinion is it's just more people making a few bucks off over weight people who need help - not being victimized.
