kimkw 7 Posted February 24, 2016 Has anyone with ky medicare had conversion from band to sleeve? My band "has to come out". I have a distended espoghas abd stomach. Gaining weight with empty band. Apparently I have to do a 3 month diet trial, seems crazy, i have a band. Worse part is, I should have been told this after upper GI, instead of 10 months later. I could be done and recovered by now.
