Karen - ask this on the band board, too. There are quite a few people who post there who had a sleeve revision. Midwestern girl (not positive that's the name) is one of them.

Banded 10 years & maintaining my weight loss!! Any questions, message me.

Yep, me. ;o)

I had a band for 18 months and revised to a sleeve16 months ago. Love it!

Why are you wanting to revise? Are you having a problem with your band or are you just not losing weight?
