I want my band removed after 10 years.
Every bariactric doctor I have a consulted with, wants to do a revision. Idon't want one.
I am fine with my weight the way it is now.
Now , also , I have having pain in my stomach over the last 4 weeks and it is very common for me to have gastritis and esophogits once or twice a year.
But this time it is accompanied by pain in one spot, which is different from the past episodes and I am on 4 previcids a day, which is the maximum and generic mylanta.
The last bariactric surgeon I consulted with, says if , after endoscopy, with my gastroenterologist, I have erosion, he will do an "open" revision, which I do not want.
I do understand if there is alot of damage, from a possible erosion, that repair work does need to be done.
However, I do not want a revision.
My problem, all the bariactric surgeons, I have consulted with this year, just want to do this.
I don't feel I can trust any of them that I have consulted with ..as far as band removal.
I am on Medicare with a vey good supplemental insurance,however that limits me to choices, as I am 67.
Also I am in So California.
Help, I need adivise.
