Well here I go again! LapBand installed 04/16/2009 and I did well with very few problems and good weight loss. Started having troubles in Jan of 2013 with waking up at night choking. I didn't even think about it being anything to do with my Band, well it was! To make a long story short my Band totally obstructed me in Aug of 2013 and had to be emergently removed. I have gained 40 pounds + back and it's time for a more permanent resolution. My surgeon and I have agreed on RNY and I'm looking forward to it. Of course my insurance company is going to make me go through all the same hoops I had to for the LapBand, so in about 6 months from now we will get things done!!! Wish me luck!!

Sounds very similar to my story. Best decision I ever made was to have my band removed and revise to RNY. I also gained 60lbs back. Wishing you the best.
