Hi, I just switched from the band to the sleeve on August 28, 2018. Had the band in 2004, it broke in 2009 and I had lost 88pounds. Found a doctor is 2014 that fixed the band (all weight was re-gained), really did not lose much after the band was re-instated. August of 2018 the doctor removed the band and did the sleeve in the same surgery. Have been miserable ever since, however I have lost around 60 pounds. My body is not absorbing iron and I am having a lot of diarrhea and really weak like a dish rag. Don't want to eat much, just do not feel good. Hoping my body adjusts soon.
