UGI - Slip?
Aug 02, 2010
I had an UGI early this morning for a suspected slip. It's been almost 3 years now and I can confidently say that I am glad that the LB will be shortly removed. I didn't have all the expected problems that alot of fellow LB'rs have, I've always been very leary of fills and because of it, have not had any more than 3 small fills over the course. I've had pain/burning at times from almost the beginning and it was always in one spot of my belly. I brought it to the attention of the medical professionals but was met with funny explanations about tissue slip, gas and even "I don't know."So, to make a long story short....my band should be removed sometime this year. Possibly this month depending upon the severity of the UGI results. My new surgeon first offered a revision early last year, stupidly I didn't take him up on it. This year, after a heavy piece of humble pie, I am now looking forward instead of the past. I am leaning towards the Sleeve but I still have a few more questions for the surgeon before I proceed.
