We thought I had a stricture, but the EGD apparently showed decreased motility. I know some have had a really hard time with this, but doc seems to think it will get better with time. Anyone experience this??

Began journey in 2007 at 312, had Lap band 2008, lost 40 pre-op then 24 post op, regained to 319.  Lost 39# on my own, then revised to VSG 4/29/13 @ 280.

I know one lady who has had a horrible time with this and can barely eat anymore. Would you like me to send her over here?

I see where you joined the FB group and they will give you awesome advice and info. I truly hope this does resolve, just think how much worse it would be had you kept the band longer. Thank goodness it is gone and not doping more damage!

Mine didn't get any better and it never will.  Stupid bands.
