I had seen you posted about getting the Band added to your sleeve.  I looked at your profiled and saw your starting weight was 378 pounds.  I think your original surgeon was very negligent in performing the sleeve on your with that much weight to lose.

Hmmm, i dont think so. There have been many people with a high starting weight and lose with the sleeve. Yes, i agree its not for everyone with high bmi but you have to follow your plan. Sorry browneyes, i dont know of any surgeons in Tennessee. I suggest google . Good luck

Many VSGers have been revised to DS without having their stomachs or pylorus valves touched.  Check dsfacts.com for a list of surgeons who do revisions to DS.  Also, visit the DS board, where the folks there are knowledgeable.

Hope this helps!
