The seminar last night was very good, informative, and created some more questions.
First...there is no pogram fee so that was awesome. My dilema now is that I had only been going to band surgeons because I was sure that's what I wanted to do....but this surgeon also does the gastric sleeve surgery. Not having to deal with fills, pb'ing, getting stuck all sounds good....having part of my stomach cut away permanantly not so good.....Why did you choose the band over the sleeve or vice versa? I would love to hear your comments!
I'm so sorry I missed your post the first time around. I hope things are going well with you and would love to hear what you decided. I got the band on July 9th and had my 2nd fill this past Thursday. The fills really aren't a big deal. I haven't had any pbs, but I think they can be avoided for the most part once you get the hang of everything. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI was curious what you decided to do. I am considering revision surgery and trying to decide between the sleeve and gastric bypass. I chose the band because it was the least invasive, but it has not worked for me. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. Hope all is well.
