Sorry, always difficult to answer without knowing the details.

Can't see how it could be the band at four years post-op. 

Why do you think your weight didn't come off?

Highest 290, Banded - 248   Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006.  Regain of 28lbs 2013-14.  ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,

Check your meds they may be the culprit to the hair loss.

Have you had your iron checked?  And, by that, I mean not just your ferritin but the whole nine yards.  Some doctors only order the most obvious iron test but not the others.  There are more iron tests that can done besides that one.  Iron deficiency anemia will cause hair loss.

Also is there any other major stress going on in your life.  All major stress can cause hair to fall out and just good old fashion genes can be the problem.

BAND REMOVED 9-4-12-fought insurance to get sleeve and won! Sleeved 1/22/13! Five years out and trying to get that last 15 pounds back off.
