@12345vonnie , your situation is of concern to me because what you are saying seems to be that you are considering gastric band surgery, to prevent you being able to eat food prepared for you by someone else, that you don’t want to eat, but have no alternative. This would be a drastic action. It would also , possibly be that you would not be a suitable candidate for the surgery due to your other health condition , Functional Neurological Disorder.

I would suggest you explain to your nurse, what you have told us, regarding your husband being a feeder. This could constitute domestic abuse. Sorry to be so blunt, but maybe I have misunderstood your meaning?
There are some organisations that may be able to offer better advice that I hope you will check out, but I would urge you to talk to your doctor or nurse as well.
