Dear Virginiann - I have had the lap band for over a year and have had several problems (infection, slipping, etc) resulting in my doctor wanting to remove the band and do a gastric by-pass. I am very nervous. I am 50, am diabetic. I am concerned that if all the problems happened to me with the lap band....will I get all the problems with the gastric bypass. On one hand I am excited to make the change and then on the other hand I am afraid.
