Scared!

[Erin O'Donnell 61]

Hi! I just recently got my band completely unfilled due to a slip. While my doctor was unwilling my band he recommended that I consider revising to the sleeve. I've heard so many great success stories with the sleeve that I am really considering going through with it.

My only question is, do people with the sleeve struggle with getting "stuck" like those with the band can? Since having a slip with my band I cannot imagine going through that same struggle permanently with the sleeve.

Any advice is welcome! Thanks!

You might check into plication, they just fold a part of your stomach over and it is reversible. I had it done this August with my lapband. Some people have had it done as a revision of their lapband procedure.
