Hello Suenan, My Dr is Dr. Garneau. He is based at Hopital Sacre coeur but his office is at Rockland Medical center. I first saw his this past september, where he explained all the different types of surgery and gave me all the information in order for me to make my choice. I went back a month later, told him about my decision and he put me on the waiting list and told me that it was close to 1 year waiting, but since the surgery didn' t need an overnight stay, I should be able to have it at the Rockland Medical center. Which is where I got the surgery this past march. Hope this helps. Good luck and keep in touch. Mollyjolie

Hello, I'm newly banded March 8th and I don't think I have any fill. My 1st appointment for my fill is April 20th. So far so good. I lost 15 lbs for now. I got a stuck period once and did not appreciate. This past tuesday for dinner, I had about 1 cup of elbow Pasta with ground beef and tomato sauce. That was my last solid food meal. The following morning, I couldn't eat still to full, for lunch, I had a Boost (protein shake) and no dinner. Thursday, no Breakfast, no lunch but for dinner I more or less forced my self to eat a grill cheese sandwich but I couldn't finish it. I was getting scared that I had streched my new pouch. This friday, I tried to have breakfast. A greek yogourt with 1/2 cup of Cereal but didn't want to go down. I tried to eat lunch couldn't. And then it started. I started to feel sick so I had a 7up but I removed the gas from it. But it didn't work. I was sick (both ends sorry for the details). Today, I feel ok but everytime I eat or drink, I feel like there's a pouch of air that needs to come up when I swallow. Is it normal? My side, where my band is, is tender. Is il normal? Any body can give me info?

Hello, You're probably on a strict liquid diet. As you probably were prior to your surgery. Give it a few days. When you'll have Jello and yogourt, everything should go back to normal.
