Congratulations on your revision you are going to love being sleeved. 
I guess I was really lucky that my revision was literally a surprise or else I may have freaked out, but then again when I woke up in the recovery room and they told me I was sleeved I actually did freak out. I was so frightened to death because I hadn't put in the research time because as far as I knew a revision was out of the question and I was only hospitalized so they could do some tests.
I only found out 30 minutes prior to surgery I was having my band out, but I am so thankful it is done. You are going to be so happy whit the sleeve. It's different and you will need to relearn some of the old rules that newbies need to learn , but you can do it.
Go into surgery as healthy as possible. Up your vitamins and protein NOW and walk everyday to build up some strength.
Good Luck
