I had my lap band (which I fought SO hard to get) on 7/7/09....I did amazing and I loved it! Back in December 2011 I had a horrible stomach bug and was so sick that I needed my band removed...my doc told me that since it was a complication and not a choice, my insurance will pay for another surgery, which I'm completely thankful for.
Now here's my dilemma....I loved my band...I still have my port. I know a few people who have had the sleeve and did amazing, but I know more who stopped losing and even started gaining. I know there are positives/negatives to every surgery...I guess I'm just wondering what the thoughts are from those of you who feel like I did....
Anyone who LOVED the band but is considering the sleeve?? Or who switched and either loves the sleeve OR switched and wishes they still had their band????
I have to tell you...right now I'm pretty set on getting my band back...just looking for some opinions
