why dont you touch base with your surgical coordinator and see if they will be able to help you.  i know someone who had problems with her band and was just sleeved.

Definately speak with someone at your medical center.  Chances are it might be as simple as needing a fill.

I had a VBG done 7 yrs ago.. lost 135lbs.. doing great aside from the vomitting and constant heart burn.. so definately make sure to research your surgery options and side effects before making a choice.

Good Luck to you.
