Put again?: I would not reccomend placement of another band for at least one year or even consider a different bariatric procedure all together.

Bariatric options : Okay to discuss with your surgeon some of the other bariatric options. There are many. You might do well with a gastric sleeve, a gastric bypass or a large fundoplication. Take a family/friend with you to discuss your options. Your insurance coverage will be a factor. A second opinion might help you decide.
