Tough Choices

So i got more information from my doctor last week.  My lap band doctor thinks that my worse GERD and all the inflamation in my stomach and the hernia are all due to my lap band.  He said in rare cases the stomach basically rejects the lapband and it causes complications like i have that can lead to ulcers.  He is worried this may happen to me due to my horrible GERD recently.  He suggested that I have a revision done and have the lap band removed and either get the gastric sleeve or gastric bypass.  I have so tough and possibly life changing decisions to make.  I am so confused about what to do.  I made an appointment to go to Columbia Missouri to talk to a doctor that was reccomended by two people to have him go over my information and see what he his suggestion is.  I am just really nervous about it.
