Seems To be going fast and on the fence
Hello! Glad to hear that your process is moving right along. I am set to see my surgeon on Thursday and then the process begins to gather insurance information and submit it. after much research and prayer, I am going with the VSG (sleeve). I feel this is the best option for me and what I feel comfortable with and that is what it is about: what do you feel comfortable. Hopefully your surgeon can gudie you through this decision but the final call is yours. Do what is best for you and your goals.

I have a band and am trying to get it replaced with a sleeve. The sleeve leave the natural opening alone and that is important to me. Also if some help is needed down the road and you do need malabsorbtion it can have a by pass added and would than be a DS. But, they found most people did fine on the Sleeve only.
I would have had the Sleeve from the start but, the center I had to use didn't do it and my insurance wouldn't cover it. Two months after I was banded they started doint it and now my insurance covers it but, they now have a once in a life time policy.
Good luck with what every you choose.
