Thank you all for your comments - she's on her way home to have band removed late this week...
My questions is concerning my mom. She was banded by another Dr 1 yr ago and has been having severe problems for about 4 months w/ servere acid reflux and vomiting. She has contacted her Dr several times but is not getting a response. Also, she is in <ST1:p<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comIraq </st1:country-region></ST1:pand can not get home easily to see the doctor. Also, she has only lost about 15 lbs since the surgery. Any help would be greatly appreciated as she is very worried. Thank you in advance for your advice.
