titan05 174 Posted June 15, 2015 I am 45 year old male 5'10 /260 pounds with a failed band. Very apprehensive about revision surgery. I have cancelled my date twice and was ready to go June 7 but my doctor has to cancel and reschedule for June 23. Beginning to second guess this decision. I know several people that have had great success. Any advice is welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
par1959 470 Posted June 16, 2015 In my support group several memebers have switched and love it. For the most part bands are not done anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCTRNL 25 Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) Yeah, I've never met anyone who had the revision done and didn't love it. Not a lot of regrets. Edited June 16, 2015 by NCTRNL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
livvsmum 2,369 Posted June 16, 2015 I never had the revision. The sleeve is my first go at wls, but it has 100% changed my life. You can read about my journey - the challenges and the successes in my blog (linked in siggy) - but I would go for it! It is an amazing tool, and as long as you are willing to put in the time an effort to do the emotional work as well you will be a great success with the sleeve. Good luck to you!!!
