Hello All, My name is Andre and I too have the lap band, but on the journey for a gastric sleeve. I actually had my pet class yesterday and I hope to have a surgery date in the next week or so. I have had my band for 11 years and I have certainly had great success with it. Last year it felt as though my band had opened up in my chest. It turned out to be a slip. I am excited, but a little nervous too. As of late, my doctor told me that my body was rejecting the band and I would have to do something quickly. I have gained 40 pounds since November and I am disappointed because I have been below 170 lbs for over 10 years. Any advice would be appreciated.
