Band Removal...And now it's VG time!



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow I leave for San Francisco to get my band removed and revised to a VG (Vertical Gastrectomy). I will let you all know how it goes in a week or so when I get back.

Anthony,

Wow! That will be exciting/interesting. My surgeon tried to talk me into the VG so I will be curious to your followup.

Best wishes,

Kelli

Best to you, Anthony. You have had it tough, and your band journey has been frustrating. I hope your back pain ends and your surgery is smooth as silk! Be well, can't wait to hear from you when you get back!!!!

Hi Anthony

The best to you!

I was banded 8/14/03 and live about 40 miles from SF.

If I had to have my band removed I would get the VG also.

Keep us updated!!
