Band to sleeve Failure

[homeesiick 4]

I'm sorry to see that people on this thread have not all been treated with the respect and dignity they deserve by their doctors. I know it's not always possible, but if you are not happy with your doctor, find another one. You can also leave a review on Healthgrades.com when you're not happy. A few years ago I felt like I was bullied by a sleep medicine doctor. Luckily I was able to find someone much better. I also wasn't satisfied with the group that did my lap-band, because they made me see my PCP and a dietitian before I could see a Bariatric doctor. I now drive 2 hours to see my current Bariatric doctor, but it's worth it.

Anyhow, I've been approved by my insurance company for DS surgery, and I'm scheduled to have it early next month.

good luck on your journey, make sure your doctor tells you as much as he can!!

The sleeve is the same size that it was after your recovery. Are you going to treat your underlying eating disorder before getting another surgery?

Please don't bring your naive ignorance and negativity onto my post, thanks!

If your have problems with the truth and just want people to lie to you feel free to block my posts.

THE SLEEVE IS EXACTLY THE SAME SIZE AS IT WAS ONCE THE SWELLING WENT DOWN. That's a MEDICAL fact.
