Akafij 21 Posted August 11, 2014 Band to sleeve revision date is Tuesday, August 19. I can't believe how quickly this went. I had my initial appointment to ask for an upper gi in mid June. Two upper GIs, an EGD, blood work, psych eval and PCP clearance all done within 6 weeks. My doc submitted to my insurance on Thursday, they approved today and I'm on the schedule for next week. Amazing! Pre-op appointments on Wednesday. Here we go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akafij 21 Posted August 17, 2014 I'm feeling nervous! Completely paranoid that I won't get it done with one surgery, I'm also getting over a cold and praying that I'm done with coughing by Tuesday. I'm on Clear Liquids today and tomorrow and fighting with my head right now. I was banded February of 2009 and slipped December of 2010 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nowornever14 36 Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Hi Akafij, I feel you !!! I am where you are. I have a band since 2004 . Same thing I am so hoping that all will go well and I am not too scared that they can do the surgeries in one shut. At our hospital they usually NEVER do a band to sleeve revision in one surgery but since I suffer from Lupus they do not want to force two surgeries on my system , so I pushed to get it done all in one. Keep me posted !! I cross my fingers for you Edited August 17, 2014 by nowornever14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
