Has anyone went from band to bypass ?

Was wondering if anyone has went from band to bypass. Had my band done 5 years ago. Done great in the beginning. Still have not gained all my weight back but it is slowly creeping on. Am puking every day, but this is not new. I never told dr because I was afraid he would unfill. Would like to have bypass because I am sick of this ! Any advice ?

Yes. You are likely to find people on the bypass board.

meanwhiie though, don't  wait. See your doctor and get some saline out. You should not be puking regularly. Doing so means your band is too tight for whatever reason and you risk permanent damage to your oesophagus.

Exactly what Kate said get some saline out NOW. I had my band out in Feb and am still suffering every single day from severe GERD because I tried to keep my band too long and I only had mild symptoms. 24 hours a day it feels like hot lava pulsing up and down my esophagus. So don't wait!

I went from the band to the sleeve. I haven't regretted it. I don't miss throwing up constantly, not to mention the finicky art of learning the band in all its weird ways. As others have said, you should NOT be throwing up every day. Wishing you luck!

If you go to the revision boards, you will find many band to RNY, VSG and DS.  Go to the RNY boards and you can post there and find them.

I am having the same issue with acid reflux, I still have my band but am looking for a new doctor to remove it.  thinking of going with the sleeve this time.  It's so disappointing to have gone thru so much and now having to have the band removed.  I have gained most of my weight back.
