Having a Revision & Scared

Any advice on going from Lap-Band to Sleeve? I am really nervous! Thank you

Adrienne -

I'm sorry, I don't have any knowledge of a revision, but I think that there's a revision forum here on OH.

Good luck and welcome to the Maryland Board!!

I wish I could help. Has your surgeon explained this in detail to you? I wish you the best of luck. Its normal to be nervous though. (((((Hugs)))))))

I don;t have any experience with revision, so I can't help you on that. The suggestion to check out the revision board sounds like a good one. Regardless, you are always welcome here. We will give you all the encouragement and support we can!

I think any surgery is something to take seriously. When I was preparing for my RNY I was quite scared as I had no experience with surgery of any kind. However, the longer I worked on the preparations, the more confident I bacame that this was the right thing for me. I just kept putting one foot in front of the other until one day, it was done! And it went much better than my imagination could take it! Do your reserach, follow the guidelines / preparations and your likelihood of a wonderful outcome will be that much greater.

Wishing you all the best!
