LiggleLiggle 84 Posted May 27, 2013 I had a revision in March due to a slipped band which caused a major sized hernia for starters.....I look at my revision as a second chance on life and wish I had researched the sleeve more before my band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fixerupper 335 Posted May 27, 2013 I had a band for five years. It damaged my stomach and esophagus in a way that was becoming very serious. I lost fifty pounds in five years, threw up multiple times daily, and was always hungry. Sleeved now ten days. Down nineteen pounds. No throwing up and almost never hungry. It is amazing. My band damage made me higher risk for sleeve leak and I had a scare requiring a second surgery the day following my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
