I have a lapband and had a tt and experience a upper stomach swelling. I asked my dr and he said its common in lapbands. Anyone else? I am planning to switch to VS and hoping it does not happen again

I think you should post this question on LBT. Having had a revision though I know that due to constant overeating yes your stomach above the band can swell or stretch; when you have the VSG you don't have the band so you will not have this portion to swell.
