    band removal

    I WAS BANDED 12/31/05. I STARTED UNCONTROLLABLE BELCHING WITH GASTRITIS IN OCTOBER THAT WOULD NOT HEAL. THE Fluid WAS TAKEN OUT OF MY BAND FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. I AM MISERABLE WITH THIS CONSTANT BELCHING NOT TO MENTION EXTREMELY EMBARRASSED. THE GI DR GAVE UP AND SENT ME BACK TO MY BAND SURGEON. MY ONLY OPTION. REMOVAL. MY BAND WAS REMOVED 2/27/07 AFTER LOSING ONLY 60 LBS, DEFINITELY NOT MY GOAL BUT HALFWAY THERE. I'M LOST. I'M TERRIFIED. I FEEL ALONE. THIS WEEK HAS BEEN MISERABLE. THEY MAKE YOU GO THROUGH COUSELING AND TESTING TO HANDLE YOUR NEW LIFE, BUT THEN THEY TAKE IT FROM YOU AND JUST TOSS YOU OUT AND TELL YOU, EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE. THE GOOD NEWS IS. IT WILL BE. YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT. GET THAT BAND OUT. I FEEL BETTER TODAY THAN YESTERDAY. I'M STILL SCARED, BUT MY FAMILY IS SUPPORTIVE. WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH. YOUR TEARS WILL FALL, TOO. BUT LOOK AT HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME. PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. I AM A NURSE AND THE BAND IS NOT WORTH THE CHANCE YOU ARE TAKING WITH THE MRSA. GOOD LUCK TO YOU.
