No, Mark.

But there are some VBG (the older non-adjustable gastric band) conversion patients, but I don't know if they converted to the Swedish band. (And there is a Cousin band in Belgium, right?) All the different international band names can be a bit confusing.

Hopefully some one will come here with better information.

Meanwhile I would also check the ObesityHelp*com forum called "Revision" - I've seen quite a few former VBG patients there.

Good Luck. ("Bumping Up" this thread so others will see it.)
