LapBandToSleeve 1 Posted December 5, 2015 I am scheduled to have gastric sleeve surgery in 3 weeks. My UGI yesterday showed moderate to severe reflux. I'm afraid my surgeon is not going to want to do my surgery. Has anyone encountered this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
annam1130 40 Posted December 6, 2015 Ask if he would consider doing a Linx at the same time. It's a band they can put just above the stomach to allow food and drink to pass through but deter reflux. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LapBandToSleeve 1 Posted December 6, 2015 Oh that's good to know. I am going to send her a message through the patient portal Monday. I don't want bypass. I'm having my lap band removed and want that out no matter what, but I'd hate if she didn't want to do the sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
