    Ulcer and Lap Band

    thank you for your reply.indy this will help in knowing what my doctor might ask me.joni
  6. Hi I am 52 New Grandma and looking into lap band. When I was 25 I was told that I had an ulcer. I took medication for a while. but realized if i stay away from certain foods i am fine. I do have acid reflux and keep my Tums close by. I want to loose weight so bad. I am tired of not being able to do the things i would like to do. I have a new Granddaughter, and there are so many things I want to do with her. I want to go to the beach and take my dog to the beach too. forget walking on the beach. I am 5'1" and weight 227. Last year I had a total knee replacement and because I have gained weight since then I'm still in pain. the Doctor told me before I had the surgery that I really needed to try and loose some weight. He said any would help. but the weight just gradually comes on. I guess I am going on and on. What my real question it Does anybody have any input about being diagnosed the and ulcer, will i automatically be denied the lap band? Joni
  7. I have a question about having an ulcer. I was diagnosed with an ulcer over 25 years ago. I do not have to take medication for it. I have been havind acid reflux, and chew a few tums to help the situation. I don't know if I would ever be a canadate for this procedure. Should I see my Family doctor and get his opinion first. Is that the way it is done?
