ualaw08 270 Posted January 9, 2014 Have the sleeve done? I'm asking for my husband who is petrified that they will go in and not be able to do the surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim1967 3,569 Posted January 9, 2014 I don't have the sleeve so I cannot speak on experience with it but I do have the band and I was 450 on surgery day. I was 488 when I went for my consult and my Surgeon didn't bat an eye. Whether or not they can or will do the surgery would probably come down to his medical history but honestly I have never heard of anyone being passed on because of how big they were.

DonRodolfo 1,416 Posted January 9, 2014 Have the sleeve done? I'm asking for my husband who is petrified that they will go in and not be able to do the surgery. This time last year I was in the 420s. I got sleeved on 5/28/13 and it was one of the best things I've ever done. Note that I was 366 when I got sleeved but they would have done it in the 400s.
