Looking for male testimony on band to sleeve

[Crazy Bubba 0]

I read and appreciate all reads from lady’s but having a hard time finding men like myself in late 50s that had success going to sleeve after lap band - I had the band 8 years ago and lost about 40 pounds the first 6 months- lots of problems getting stuck and hungry all the time , after 4 years of bs I just had all the saline taken out ! Just been hanging in there about where I started but now want to take another stab at it with the sleeve - I want the band out because i believe it has caused me esophagus problems , and port seems to have scar tissue making a bump - so I thought kill 2 birds with one stone ! Question: Is failure with band any sign that sleeve will not be successful and I should opt for lobotomy ?

I’m not the male that you were looking for, but can attest to esophagus issues. I had acid reflux, just terrible heart burn and waking up with horrible after taste. After I had it yanked out, all my acid reflux issues went away. I went from lap-band to SIPS.
